<v Speaker 1>It's Wednesday, the fourteenth of May. Here's what's making headlines

0:00:11.360 --> 0:00:11.879
<v Speaker 1>this evening.

0:00:14.360 --> 0:00:17.680
<v Speaker 2>Prime Minister Anthony Albanesi is traveling to Jakarta, the capital

0:00:17.760 --> 0:00:21.439
<v Speaker 2>of Indonesia, in his first overseas trip since his decisive

0:00:21.480 --> 0:00:24.960
<v Speaker 2>victory at the federal election. Foreign Minister Penny Wong, who

0:00:25.000 --> 0:00:27.479
<v Speaker 2>will be joining the Prime Minister, told the ABC this

0:00:27.560 --> 0:00:31.760
<v Speaker 2>morning there is no country more important for Australia than Indonesia.

0:00:31.960 --> 0:00:35.240
<v Speaker 2>Wong said the economy, trade and defense will be among

0:00:35.280 --> 0:00:37.879
<v Speaker 2>the issues on the agenda. After his trip to Indonesia,

0:00:37.920 --> 0:00:40.360
<v Speaker 2>Albanesi is set to travel to Rome for Pope Leo

0:00:40.440 --> 0:00:43.120
<v Speaker 2>the fourteenth formal inauguration on Sunday.

0:00:45.680 --> 0:00:48.640
<v Speaker 1>Wages increased by three point four percent in the year

0:00:48.680 --> 0:00:51.440
<v Speaker 1>to March. That's according to new data from the Australian

0:00:51.479 --> 0:00:54.920
<v Speaker 1>Bureau of Statistics. With inflation for the same period at

0:00:54.920 --> 0:00:57.959
<v Speaker 1>two point four percent, This means wages have been increasing

0:00:58.040 --> 0:01:00.720
<v Speaker 1>at a faster rate than prices of the past year.

0:01:01.200 --> 0:01:03.959
<v Speaker 1>The data suggests that wage growth was strongest in the

0:01:04.000 --> 0:01:07.759
<v Speaker 1>public sector, mostly due to state based enterprise bargaining agreements

0:01:07.840 --> 0:01:10.759
<v Speaker 1>as well as increases for aged care workers. Wage growth

0:01:10.800 --> 0:01:12.679

0:01:15.400 --> 0:01:19.360

<v Speaker 2>with the possibility of parole, meaning they could soon be released.

0:01:29.720 --> 0:01:32.240
<v Speaker 2>The two brothers were first sentenced to life in prison

0:01:32.360 --> 0:01:35.360
<v Speaker 2>without parole in nineteen ninety six for the murder of

0:01:35.400 --> 0:01:39.039
<v Speaker 2>their parents in nineteen eighty nine. The re sentencing makes

0:01:39.040 --> 0:01:42.839
<v Speaker 2>them eligible for parole under California's Youth offender laws, which

0:01:42.880 --> 0:01:46.120
<v Speaker 2>state a parole board is required to give special consideration

0:01:46.200 --> 0:01:48.680
<v Speaker 2>to offenders who were under the age of twenty six

0:01:48.760 --> 0:01:51.640
<v Speaker 2>at the time of the crime. A hearing scheduled for

0:01:51.720 --> 0:01:54.640
