WEBVTT - Headlines: Final submissions at Bondi stabbing inquest

0:00:04.760 --> 0:00:08.760
<v Speaker 1>From the Daily Os. I'm Emma Gillespie, I'm Zarasidler. It's Tuesday,

0:00:08.800 --> 0:00:12.080
<v Speaker 1>the twenty fifth of November. Here's what's making headlines this evening.

0:00:14.320 --> 0:00:17.319
<v Speaker 2>One Nation leader Pauline Hanson has been suspended from the

0:00:17.360 --> 0:00:20.520
<v Speaker 2>Senate for seven days after she wore a burker in parliament.

0:00:20.760 --> 0:00:23.400
<v Speaker 2>The Federal government blocked the senator from tabling a bill

0:00:23.440 --> 0:00:26.680
<v Speaker 2>to ban burker's and full face coverings yesterday. A short

0:00:26.720 --> 0:00:29.560
<v Speaker 2>time later, Hanson appeared in the Senate chamber dressed in

0:00:29.600 --> 0:00:33.839
<v Speaker 2>a burker. Foreign Minister pennywe called the stunt disrespectful, while

0:00:33.880 --> 0:00:37.800
<v Speaker 2>the Coalition also criticized Hanson. Motions to suspend Hanson for

0:00:37.800 --> 0:00:40.720
<v Speaker 2>seven days and censure her were passed earlier this afternoon.

0:00:41.080 --> 0:00:43.720
<v Speaker 2>As it's the final sitting week of the year, Hanson's

0:00:43.760 --> 0:00:46.559
<v Speaker 2>Senate ban will extend into the new year. The One

0:00:46.640 --> 0:00:49.479
<v Speaker 2>Nation politician previously wore a burker in the Senate in

0:00:49.520 --> 0:00:52.960
<v Speaker 2>twenty seventeen, also seeking a ban on the religious garment.

0:00:55.800 --> 0:00:58.360
<v Speaker 1>Final submissions have been made at the inquest into the

0:00:58.360 --> 0:01:02.320
<v Speaker 1>Westfield Bondi stabbing attack. Hearings commenced in April, a year

0:01:02.360 --> 0:01:05.240
<v Speaker 1>after forty year old Joel Couchi killed six people and

0:01:05.360 --> 0:01:08.680
<v Speaker 1>injured another ten. He was fatally shot by police at

0:01:08.680 --> 0:01:11.280
<v Speaker 1>the scene. At the start of the inquest, the New

0:01:11.319 --> 0:01:15.160
<v Speaker 1>Southeales Coroner's Court heard Couchy was diagnosed with schizophrenia as

0:01:15.200 --> 0:01:19.040
<v Speaker 1>a teenager and was effectively unmedicated for nearly five years

0:01:19.120 --> 0:01:22.479
<v Speaker 1>leading up to the attack. Council assisting the coroner, Peggy

0:01:22.520 --> 0:01:26.920
<v Speaker 1>Dwyer sc today described evidence given by Couchi's former psychiatrist,

0:01:27.240 --> 0:01:30.520
<v Speaker 1>who weaned him off his medication in twenty nineteen, as

0:01:30.640 --> 0:01:35.440
<v Speaker 1>quote confusing and wildly inconsistent. Doctor Andrea boris Lavac told

0:01:35.440 --> 0:01:38.440
<v Speaker 1>the court that Cauchi was influenced by a quote hatred

0:01:38.520 --> 0:01:42.559
<v Speaker 1>towards women, not his psychiatric state, before she withdrew those

0:01:42.600 --> 0:01:46.720
<v Speaker 1>comments the next day. In closing submissions, Dwyer accused the

0:01:46.760 --> 0:01:51.000
<v Speaker 1>psychiatrist of attempting to recharacterize Couchie's mental health rather than

0:01:51.040 --> 0:01:54.920
<v Speaker 1>investigating what she called obvious signs and significant red flags

0:01:55.000 --> 0:01:58.680
<v Speaker 1>that pointed to relapse. Her final report and recommendations are

0:01:58.720 --> 0:02:00.120
<v Speaker 1>expected by the end of the US.

0:02:02.880 --> 0:02:05.920
<v Speaker 2>The highly contagious H five bird flu strain has been

0:02:05.920 --> 0:02:10.520
<v Speaker 2>detected on Herd Island, a sub Antarctic Australian territory officials

0:02:10.520 --> 0:02:13.680
<v Speaker 2>have confirmed. It comes weeks after the federal government urged

0:02:13.680 --> 0:02:18.000
<v Speaker 2>Australians to remain focused on preparing for an outbreak. Scientists

0:02:18.040 --> 0:02:22.079
<v Speaker 2>observed unusual levels of elephant sealed deaths consistent with H

0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:25.760
<v Speaker 2>five bird flu on Herd Island in October. Samples taken

0:02:25.800 --> 0:02:28.360
<v Speaker 2>at the time have since tested positive for the virus.

0:02:28.720 --> 0:02:32.239
<v Speaker 2>Australia is the only continent free from the highly contagious strain,

0:02:32.560 --> 0:02:37.079
<v Speaker 2>which could threaten poultry and wild animal populations. However, Agriculture

0:02:37.120 --> 0:02:40.960
<v Speaker 2>Minister Julie Collins said the detection does not substantially increase

0:02:41.080 --> 0:02:45.200
<v Speaker 2>risks here in Australia. Environment Minister Murray Watt said Australian

0:02:45.240 --> 0:02:48.400
<v Speaker 2>researchers are monitoring the global spread of bird flu so

0:02:48.480 --> 0:02:50.960
<v Speaker 2>that we as a country are equipped with the best

0:02:50.960 --> 0:02:53.520
<v Speaker 2>possible information for when it reaches our shores.

0:02:56.200 --> 0:02:59.560
<v Speaker 1>And today's good news patients who listen to music during

0:02:59.600 --> 0:03:03.600
<v Speaker 1>surge may recover faster and require less medication. A new

0:03:03.600 --> 0:03:04.720
<v Speaker 1>study has found.

0:03:04.480 --> 0:03:08.000
<v Speaker 2>This feels personal. I love this m this is a

0:03:08.000 --> 0:03:09.080
<v Speaker 2>good one.

0:03:09.120 --> 0:03:12.639
<v Speaker 1>The goal of the study, led via the Mallana azard

0:03:12.720 --> 0:03:16.480
<v Speaker 1>Medical College in the Indian capital Delhi, was to understand

0:03:16.639 --> 0:03:20.000
<v Speaker 1>more about the effects of general anesthetics so that patients

0:03:20.040 --> 0:03:23.960
<v Speaker 1>could be discharged from hospital. Earlier, trial participants were played

0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:29.080
<v Speaker 1>instrumental pieces via noise canceling headphones under anesthetic, and doctors

0:03:29.120 --> 0:03:32.839
<v Speaker 1>noted the music therapy patients woke up from surgery more

0:03:32.919 --> 0:03:36.640
<v Speaker 1>clear headed and alert, and they generally required less pain

0:03:36.720 --> 0:03:40.320
<v Speaker 1>medication than those who were not played music. Researchers said,

0:03:40.400 --> 0:03:44.360
<v Speaker 1>since the ability to hear remains intact under anesthesia, music

0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:48.120
<v Speaker 1>can still shape the brain's internal state, lowering stress levels,

0:03:48.160 --> 0:03:52.400
<v Speaker 1>stabilizing blood pressure, and setting them up for a smoother recovery.

0:03:53.120 --> 0:03:55.640
<v Speaker 2>M thanks for taking us through the day's headlines. If

0:03:55.680 --> 0:03:57.960
<v Speaker 2>you are looking for something else to listen to, check

0:03:58.000 --> 0:04:01.840
<v Speaker 2>out today's deep dive, where we explain maryry Fowler's racism allegations.

0:04:02.040 --> 0:04:04.320
<v Speaker 1>We'll be back tomorrow morning with another deep dive, but

0:04:04.440 --> 0:04:09.640
<v Speaker 1>until then, have a good one.
