1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:02,400
Speaker 1: John the may are very good morning to you.

2
00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:03,480
Speaker 2: Good morning.

3
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:05,400
Speaker 1: Now what's going wrong though? Is this a big promise

4
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:07,200
Speaker 1: count deliver? Because they kind of deal with the Greens,

5
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:08,639
Speaker 1: they couldn't get it through the Senate so it was

6
00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:12,000
Speaker 1: a numbers problem on vaping basically, yes, well it.

7
00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:14,720
Speaker 2: Was described as a world first law, but there is

8
00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:16,720
Speaker 2: a lot of anger after the government did water down

9
00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:19,760
Speaker 2: its vaping ban to win the support of the Greens.

10
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:22,080
Speaker 2: So vapes will now be able to be sold over

11
00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:26,439
Speaker 2: the counter, but in pharmacies only from next week, and

12
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 2: that is because the Greens agreed to pass this proposed ban.

13
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 2: There's a bit of a deal obviously. So these water

14
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 2: down restrictions have drawn the eye of a pharmacist because

15
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:41,680
Speaker 2: they thought it would be prescription only, so people no

16
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:46,280
Speaker 2: longer need a GP according to this new law to

17
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 2: buy vapes, and pharmacists say no, it should have really

18
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:54,960
Speaker 2: been with prescription only. Some restrictions still apply though, apparently,

19
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 2: so there's the vapes are going well. The Yeah, the

20
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 2: vapes will be subject to playing packaging and there's no

21
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 2: more strawberry flavors or fruity flavors and so forth. It's

22
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,920
Speaker 2: going to be limited to mint menthol and tobacco. We've

23
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:11,840
Speaker 2: heard from the Health Minister saying it will return vapes

24
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 2: to their original purpose, which was a therapeutic product to

25
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,920
Speaker 2: help hardened smokers kick the habit.

26
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 1: That happens, then we got the new governor General, the

27
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 1: incoming governor general. So where did this big pay rise

28
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 1: come from? Because it's quite substantial, isn't it oh to be.

29
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 2: The governor general in a way, So the Albanize the

30
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,039
Speaker 2: government wants to pass a new bill that would leave

31
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:35,960
Speaker 2: the Governor General's salary by wait for it, forty three percent.

32
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 2: Now that is a hefty pay rise. So we do

33
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 2: have a new governor General coming next week, Sam Moston,

34
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:46,679
Speaker 2: So apparently about an extra chihundred fourteen grand to earn

35
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 2: a seven hundred and nine thousand dollars. Now we know

36
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 2: that in the past, say, for instance, Governor General David Hurling,

37
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 2: who's the outgoing GG. Well he's the former chief of

38
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 2: Defense Force, so he got a military pension on top

39
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 2: of the salary, which is about four hundred grands. So

40
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,680
Speaker 2: the government says the change is to ensure that this

41
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 2: salary remains appropriate for the duration of the terms. So

42
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 2: Sam Mostron will get this amount of money for five

43
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 2: years running.

44
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 1: Good luck to wear Yep, good on Donna, catch up

45
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 1: next week. Appreciate it very much. Donald to Mayo out
