A short 7 00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:29,560 Speaker 2: time later, Hanson appeared in the Senate chamber dressed in 8 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:33,839 Speaker 2: a burker. Foreign Minister pennywe called the stunt disrespectful, while 9 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:37,800 Speaker 2: the Coalition also criticized Hanson. Motions to suspend Hanson for 10 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 2: seven days and censure her were passed earlier this afternoon. 11 00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:43,720 Speaker 2: As it's the final sitting week of the year, Hanson's 12 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,559 Speaker 2: Senate ban will extend into the new year. The One 13 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,479 Speaker 2: Nation politician previously wore a burker in the Senate in 14 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:52,960 Speaker 2: twenty seventeen, also seeking a ban on the religious garment. 15 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 1: Final submissions have been made at the inquest into the 16 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 1: Westfield Bondi stabbing attack. Hearings commenced in April, a year 17 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: after forty year old Joel Couchi killed six people and 18 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:08,680 Speaker 1: injured another ten. He was fatally shot by police at 19 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 1: the scene. At the start of the inquest, the New 20 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 1: Southeales Coroner's Court heard Couchy was diagnosed with schizophrenia as 21 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:19,040 Speaker 1: a teenager and was effectively unmedicated for nearly five years 22 00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:22,479 Speaker 1: leading up to the attack. Council assisting the coroner, Peggy 23 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 1: Dwyer sc today described evidence given by Couchi's former psychiatrist, 24 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: who weaned him off his medication in twenty nineteen, as 25 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 1: quote confusing and wildly inconsistent. Doctor Andrea boris Lavac told 26 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 1: the court that Cauchi was influenced by a quote hatred 27 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:42,559 Speaker 1: towards women, not his psychiatric state, before she withdrew those 28 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 1: comments the next day. In closing submissions, Dwyer accused the 29 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 1: psychiatrist of attempting to recharacterize Couchie's mental health rather than 30 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 1: investigating what she called obvious signs and significant red flags 31 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 1: that pointed to relapse. Her final report and recommendations are 32 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:00,120 Speaker 1: expected by the end of the US. 33 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 2: The highly contagious H five bird flu strain has been 34 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 2: detected on Herd Island, a sub Antarctic Australian territory officials 35 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 2: have confirmed. It comes weeks after the federal government urged 36 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 2: Australians to remain focused on preparing for an outbreak. Scientists 37 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:22,079 Speaker 2: observed unusual levels of elephant sealed deaths consistent with H 38 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 2: five bird flu on Herd Island in October. Samples taken 39 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,360 Speaker 2: at the time have since tested positive for the virus. 40 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,239 Speaker 2: Australia is the only continent free from the highly contagious strain, 41 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:37,079 Speaker 2: which could threaten poultry and wild animal populations. However, Agriculture 42 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,960 Speaker 2: Minister Julie Collins said the detection does not substantially increase 43 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 2: risks here in Australia. Environment Minister Murray Watt said Australian 44 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 2: researchers are monitoring the global spread of bird flu so 45 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 2: that we as a country are equipped with the best 46 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 2: possible information for when it reaches our shores. 47 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: And today's good news patients who listen to music during 48 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 1: surge may recover faster and require less medication. A new 49 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 1: study has found. 50 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 2: This feels personal. I love this m this is a 51 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:09,080 Speaker 2: good one. 52 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:12,639 Speaker 1: The goal of the study, led via the Mallana azard 53 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 1: Medical College in the Indian capital Delhi, was to understand 54 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 1: more about the effects of general anesthetics so that patients 55 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 1: could be discharged from hospital. Earlier, trial participants were played 56 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:29,080 Speaker 1: instrumental pieces via noise canceling headphones under anesthetic, and doctors 57 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,839 Speaker 1: noted the music therapy patients woke up from surgery more 58 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 1: clear headed and alert, and they generally required less pain 59 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: medication than those who were not played music. Researchers said, 60 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 1: since the ability to hear remains intact under anesthesia, music 61 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 1: can still shape the brain's internal state, lowering stress levels, 62 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: stabilizing blood pressure, and setting them up for a smoother recovery. 63 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 2: M thanks for taking us through the day's headlines.
