Here's what's making headlines 4 00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:11,760 Speaker 1: this evening. 5 00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:17,520 Speaker 2: Liberal leader Susan Lee has given the Nationals a week 6 00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:20,880 Speaker 2: to reconcile with the coalition before she finalizes a new 7 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 2: leadership team. As opposition leader, Lee has appointed acting spokespeople 8 00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:29,600 Speaker 2: in portfolios previously held by Nationals MPs in Shadow Cabinet 9 00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:32,920 Speaker 2: following the party's decision to walk away from the coalition. 10 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:35,880 Speaker 2: The acting arrangements will be in place until the start 11 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:39,520 Speaker 2: of the second parliamentary sitting week in February. Lee said 12 00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 2: she would then appoint six parliamentarians to the Shadow Cabinet 13 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,760 Speaker 2: and two in the outer Shadow Ministry quote. On an 14 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:49,640 Speaker 2: ongoing basis. 15 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 1: States and territories will receive an extra twenty five billion 16 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:56,120 Speaker 1: dollars in federal funding for hospitals. Following a meeting of 17 00:00:56,240 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 1: the National Cabinet, Prime Minister Anthony Alberanzi said the five Deal, 18 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 1: which will come into effect from July this year, we'll 19 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:07,039 Speaker 1: see more than two hundred and nineteen billion dollars provided, 20 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 1: which is triple the amount previously given to jurisdictions. Under 21 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: the last agreement, National Cabinet was the last chance for federal, 22 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 1: state and territory leaders to agree to hospital funding measures 23 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:22,480 Speaker 1: before the current arrangements lapsed. The deal brings an end 24 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 1: to negotiations which had stalled before today's meeting. 25 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 2: Iranian officials have warned US President Donald Trump that American 26 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 2: soldiers in the region would suffer if Washington decides to attack. 27 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 2: Iran's parliamentary speakers told US broadcaster CNN, maybe mister Trump 28 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 2: can start a war, but he doesn't have control over 29 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,839 Speaker 2: how it ends. Several thousands have been killed in recent 30 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:50,640 Speaker 2: protests in Iran. That's according to human rights groups in 31 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 2: the region. Trump has said he was planning to talk 32 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 2: to Iran amid the rising tensions. He told reporters quote, 33 00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 2: a lot of very big, powerful US ships were sailing 34 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 2: to Iran, but it would be great if we didn't 35 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 2: have to use them. It comes as EU foreign ministers 36 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 2: agreed to designate Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard as a terrorist organization. 37 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:17,079 Speaker 1: And today's good news. Scientists at the University of Virginia 38 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 1: have invented a new way to make vaccines faster and 39 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 1: cheaper than current methods. A newly developed special technique uses 40 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:28,800 Speaker 1: bacteria as tiny factories to create vaccines in just three 41 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 1: weeks instead of months. These vaccines can then be stored 42 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 1: in regular fridges instead of super cold freezers. Experts suggest 43 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 1: this new way of developing vaccines with lower costs, making 44 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 1: immunizations more affordable around the world. Doctor Steven Zeichner from 45 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: the University of Virginia School of Medicine said, we hope 46 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 1: that the vaccines made using this platform will help prevent 47 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 1: disease not only in people, but also in animals, so 48 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,080 Speaker 1: that they can help farmers and consumers and prevent diseases 49 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,359 Speaker 1: from spreading from animals to humans. 50 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 2: That's all we've got for you from the Daily Oz newsroom. 51 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 2: If you're looking for something else to listen to on 52 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 2: this Friday afternoon, you can catch up on this morning's 53 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 2: deep Dive, where Zara and Billy took you through what 54 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,359 Speaker 2: we know so far about the Perth bomb scare. 55 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,080 Speaker 1: We'll be back on Monday with another deep dive, but 56 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 1: until then, we hope you have a lovely weekend. 57 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 3: My name is Lily Maddon and I'm a proud Arunda 58 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:30,919 Speaker 3: Bungelung Calcotin woman.
