The Albanese Government is delivering on its commitment to Brisbane Southsiders, with a provider for the Brisbane South Medicare Urgent Care Clinic (Medicare UCC) selected, following an Expression of Interest process.

Cornwall Street Medical Centre will be established as the Brisbane South Medicare UCC and will start seeing patients 23 October 2023.

NARELDA JACOBS, HOST: Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, thanks for joining us at Midday. Now, opinion polls suggest –

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning, good to be with you from Wynnum.

JACOBS: It’s the still undecided voters that could help deliver a Yes victory. What will you be telling voters as they line up today to try and sway them?

I am pleased to invite visitors to The Lodge Gardens on the morning of Saturday 7 October.

Located in Deakin, Canberra, The Lodge has been an official residence for the Prime Minister of Australia since its completion in 1927.

Over the years it has served as a home for families, hosted international delegations and is an historical landmark in Australia’s political history.

VOICEOVER: I present the Honourable Anthony Albanese, Prime Minister.

MATT, HOST: Yeah, he's in the studio with us this morning.

ABBY, HOST: Yeah, and just before we get to some questions that you might have, 13 10 60 about the Voice, we were just talking off air about a visit to The Lodge.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Indeed. You’re in.

ABBY: Thank you so much.

MATT: You invited us, you were asking us to come.

Well, I'd very much like to thank Uncle Colin for the Welcome to Country and to congratulate and give a big shout-out to Briggs and everyone who's been associated with putting on this really important festival to campaign for a Yes.

We have eight days to make the greatest country on earth just that little bit greater.

This is about just two things.

First, recognising the great privilege that non-Indigenous Australians have of sharing this continent of ours with the oldest continuous culture on earth.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: It's great to be here at the announcement for another urgent care clinic, one of 11 that will be opened here in Queensland, one of the 58 that we're opening right around the country between now and the end of this year. I'm joined by Senator Murray Watt and Mark Bailey, local state MP. But of course, one of the things that these urgent care clinics is about is taking pressure off the public hospital system by creating a mid-tier, by creating a place where people can go who need urgent care, but don't have life threatening conditions.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Well, thanks for joining us. It's great to be here in Riverwood with the Premier Chris Minns, and New South Wales Housing Minister Rose Jackson, for the first of our New South Wales Social Housing Accelerator

KRISTY MCBAIN, MEMBER FOR EDEN-MONARO: Well, thank you all for being here today. It's great to have so many people here with us at the Bega Fire Control Centre. Obviously, we've experienced another substantial bushfire in the Bega Valley, which has not only impacted communities here, but it's impacted our entire region after what was a pretty devastating Black Summer bushfire. I want to thank the Prime Minister, the Premier, the Minister for Emergency Services, the local Mayor and our local State Member for being here and coming to speak firsthand to our community.

FIONA POOLE, HOST: The Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese, has been in Bega this afternoon. He's just toured the fire ground. And he joins us now. Prime Minister, good afternoon.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good afternoon, Fi. Good to be with you.

POOLE: What have you seen this arvo?

RICHARD GLOVER, HOST: Prime Minister, good afternoon.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good afternoon, Richard. Good to be with you.

GLOVER: What did you see?
