1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:04,280
Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda in the morning, Sam.

2
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:06,640
Speaker 2: Well, we'll be making good gains in the coronavirus race.

3
00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:11,719
Speaker 2: Victoria's case surge is alarming. Our borders are wide open,

4
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:14,320
Speaker 2: school holidays are about to start. What are our travel

5
00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:15,280
Speaker 2: plans going to be?

6
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 1: New?

7
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:19,000
Speaker 2: South Wales Premier Gladysbury Jiclian joins, it's good morning, Premier,

8
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:19,800
Speaker 2: good morning.

9
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:23,160
Speaker 3: How are you hello, gladys How are you well?

10
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:24,480
Speaker 1: Thank you? Can I ask you this?

11
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:27,440
Speaker 2: In the typing pool, all of us are wondering what's

12
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:29,360
Speaker 2: going to happen with school holidays. I was hoping to

13
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:32,320
Speaker 2: go up to Brisbane mid July to see my dad.

14
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:34,240
Speaker 2: One of the girls in the typing pool wants to

15
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 2: go to South Australia. They have said they will open

16
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 2: their borders the twentieth of July. Will these things be

17
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:41,600
Speaker 2: put back because of Victoria? Where are we standing with

18
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 2: all of this?

19
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 1: Oh, look it could be. We don't know yet what

20
00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:46,199
Speaker 1: the other states are up to. They're looking at the

21
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:49,319
Speaker 1: situation closely as Busney, South Wales, but as far as

22
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 1: our citizens go. If I can give the strongest advice

23
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:54,400
Speaker 1: and say to people, please don't go to Melbourne at

24
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 1: this current time, nobody should be going to any of

25
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,480
Speaker 1: those hot spots that have been identified. They're all website

26
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,400
Speaker 1: if anybody wants to see. But I would make sure

27
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 1: every citizen chose not to go to Melbourne. At this time.

28
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 1: They've greater community transmission. It is manageable, but it is

29
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,200
Speaker 1: higher than what anyone would like to see and you

30
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:13,959
Speaker 1: need to make sure it doesn't get out of control

31
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,679
Speaker 1: beyond this point. So it's really important for people not

32
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,680
Speaker 1: to travel to Victoria unless they absolutely have to. And

33
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:23,959
Speaker 1: region of Victoria's is free of COVID. It's really Melbourne

34
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:25,959
Speaker 1: and some of those hot spot areas that have a problem.

35
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,319
Speaker 1: And as strongest advice to people is please don't go

36
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,479
Speaker 1: down there. But also if you have family or friends

37
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 1: that wanted to come visit, you please discourage them and

38
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 1: tell them just to wait a while until at least

39
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,960
Speaker 1: the situation's under control. They're trying to get their ape

40
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 1: success ing up to make sure they capture all the

41
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 1: community transmission and look, what's something in Victoria should mean

42
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 1: that all of us have all hands on deck and

43
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 1: support them because it could happen anywhere around Australia. It

44
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 1: only takes one or two people not even to know

45
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 1: they've got the virus to spread us, and then you

46
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:58,840
Speaker 1: know one person can give it to several and then

47
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 1: that those several people can give it to Zevel. So

48
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 1: it only takes a couple of people to even unintentionally

49
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 1: give us for others. And that's why we're saying, if

50
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 1: you have to scratch your throat or you feel like

51
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 1: you're getting a cold, please go and get yourself tested.

52
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 1: In your South Wales. We've got so many clinics everywhere

53
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 1: and we're really encouraging people to do that.

54
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 2: So when will the decision be made about those other states, Well.

55
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 1: Let's really up to those premiers. So every premier has

56
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 1: a different view and a different sense of timing. And

57
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,639
Speaker 1: what we've done in New South Wales is demonstrate that

58
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,520
Speaker 1: you can keep your borders open but still be really

59
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 1: really COVID safe. And we had cases over you know,

60
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 1: two hundred at one stage, which was horrible. I mean

61
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 1: that's where New York and London started off. And then

62
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 1: that's when they started having those horrible spout people getting

63
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 1: sick and dying, which is something we weren't seen Australia.

64
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 1: Because we'll stop it. I mean we're managing the pandemic

65
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 1: in a way in which we know that won't happen,

66
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 1: but we still are at very high risk of having

67
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 1: those spikes, of having too many people get sick, and

68
00:02:58,360 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 1: we don't want to see more people die, but if

69
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 1: a high possibility when you get more cases, and the

70
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 1: way we can do that is just to make sure

71
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,239
Speaker 1: we keep the COVID safe rules. If you're going out

72
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,239
Speaker 1: to eat, make sure the place you're going to eat

73
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 1: too has good COVID safe plan, make sure you're using

74
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 1: hand sanitizer, washing your hands frequently, and keep that social

75
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 1: distance when you're out of public. But even in your

76
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 1: own home, we all have to be a bit strict

77
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 1: with our family and friends if anyone's feeling unwell or

78
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,079
Speaker 1: sneeze too much, or looks like I've got any type

79
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 1: of mouth syms, and please just say to them, please,

80
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 1: you know, come over when you're well, say home, get tested.

81
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:32,679
Speaker 1: So all of us have to kind of do the

82
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 1: right thing, because governments and health experts can give you

83
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 1: all the advice and put all the rules in place,

84
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 1: but it's really up to us as well to do

85
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 1: the right thing.

86
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 3: It comes down to the individual. Gladays, I'll ask you

87
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 3: this with the power House museum. How much do we

88
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 3: get for the Powerhouse site in altimate? Because we must

89
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 3: have got a fortune for that very.

90
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 1: Such still owned by us.

91
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 3: Nothing can change why we Gladys, Why are we doing it?

92
00:03:57,840 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 3: Because no one wants to move to power Matter? Its

93
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 3: seems to me and I never I like to leave

94
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 3: politicians do that thing. To me, it seems like the

95
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 3: craziest decision in the history of crazy decisions.

96
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: Well no, Well, a third of our population lives in

97
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 1: Western Sydney and there isn't a single cultural iconic museum

98
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,039
Speaker 1: in Western Sydney and a third of the state's population

99
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,080
Speaker 1: lives there. It's the largest growing part of our state

100
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:22,840
Speaker 1: apart from the Northern.

101
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 3: Now, I hear all that, but I don't understand why

102
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,840
Speaker 3: we're doing it now. At the moment, we've got common

103
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,240
Speaker 3: sense prevailed with a and Zed stadium. Why are we

104
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 3: going to move this down.

105
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:34,039
Speaker 1: We've been in the plan for a long time and

106
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 1: it will create four thousand jobs in and around Western Sydney.

107
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:39,840
Speaker 1: So any project we do at the moment, anything that's

108
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 1: shove already, we have to start because it's creating jobs.

109
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 1: And in April it was horrible, but we had two

110
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty one thousand people lost these jobs in

111
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:48,800
Speaker 1: New South Wales from the end of March to the

112
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 1: beginning of May. And we also know now there's hundreds

113
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,840
Speaker 1: of thousands of people on job Keeper and one job

114
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 1: keeper runs out in September. We need to make sure

115
00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 1: we have as much jobs being created. When I say

116
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 1: being create, we know that there's a net lot of jobs.

117
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,480
Speaker 1: But if governments can do their part in building things,

118
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,880
Speaker 1: that makes companies have to apply to projects and contracts

119
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:12,920
Speaker 1: they employ people. It means various hospitality industries around most

120
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: precinct wid there's lots of workers can actually start running

121
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 1: their businesses better. So it's really important for government to

122
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 1: keep up our public projects, all the projects that what

123
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 1: we call shove already small, medium, large. Have to push

124
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 1: you ahead for those jobs. But also the outcome is

125
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 1: really positive. Often during the course of the project everyone

126
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:31,840
Speaker 1: gets really upset about it, but then when it opens,

127
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,040
Speaker 1: people think, well, okay, I get it now, and I

128
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 1: appreciate no one's going to agree with everything we do.

129
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 1: I understand that it Please know it's warm and brought out.

130
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 1: It's not something we rushal or do at the last minute,

131
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 1: and certainly I think having a cultural institution in western

132
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 1: Sydney where the highest growth in population is a third

133
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 1: of our state and yet you know, I think we

134
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,479
Speaker 1: should really think about Sydney in broader terms and what

135
00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 1: we do.

136
00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 2: Could we just have given them a new one and

137
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 2: not having to replace the power.

138
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 1: Well, the existing site will be still a cultural space.

139
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,359
Speaker 1: And remember ninety percent of what the Powerhouse has we

140
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 1: don't even see because it's all in storage. So what

141
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 1: we'll have is we'll have a site. We'll have it,

142
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 1: we'll have an exhibition site at Ultimore, but we'll also

143
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,640
Speaker 1: have this brand new museum in power Matter and we're

144
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 1: also upgrading the storage facilities in Castle Hills. The members

145
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 1: of the public that actually have behind the scenes tours

146
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 1: of all the fantastic stuff the Powerhouse hasn't never on display,

147
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 1: so it's.

148
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 3: Not going to be sold off into apartments or anything

149
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 3: like that on the site.

150
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 1: That part of the site is going to be part

151
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 1: of a site will be a museum, part of it

152
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 1: will be potentially we know there's some interest about a

153
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 1: music theater or a lyrics bit, like some people want

154
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 1: to have a music theater there as well. And part

155
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 1: of it will be residential, but there will still be

156
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,480
Speaker 1: an arts space and that precinct it's close to the university,

157
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 1: close to the tech precinc that is just doing amazing

158
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 1: things with design and things, so there's there's opportunities for

159
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 1: us to really make that into an exhibition space and

160
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:01,479
Speaker 1: a museum because a lot of the powerhouses, I don't

161
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 1: know if you've noticed that. I that some of their

162
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,480
Speaker 1: jury sellection is the best in the world, some of

163
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 1: their fashion is just amazing. In terms of Australian history,

164
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 1: you don't often feel all of that because a lot

165
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 1: of it's in stories. So for us, it's really about

166
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 1: increasing the cultural space and it's about providing an iconic

167
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 1: institution for Western Sydney. But I think there's potential at

168
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 1: both sides, and that's what the government's working to have

169
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 1: two great sites where there's great culture space at each.

170
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 1: But I think it's really important for us to have

171
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 1: an iconic cultural institution in Western Sydney and we need

172
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,120
Speaker 1: to think of I mean, paramatter is now the geographic

173
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 1: center of Sydney if you think about how Sydney is growing,

174
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:40,640
Speaker 1: and that's really how we have to think about it.

175
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, as long as it's got a good gift shop,

176
