Primary producers affected by ongoing flooding in New South Wales can apply for recovery grants of up to $25,000 as part of the jointly funded Commonwealth-State Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements.

The grants are now available for eligible primary producers in the Local Government Areas that have been disaster declared from the most recent storm and flood event.

The assistance is available for the immediate clean-up and recovery costs to repair extensive damage to properties.

ANTHONY CHISHOLM, ASSISTANT MINISTER FOR EDUCATION AND REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT: Thanks everyone. It’s great to be with the Prime Minister on the Sunshine Coast. The Prime Minister’s been adamant about being a government for all of Australia and I think we can see the examples of that this week as he’s been across the country. So has the Treasurer, so have all members of his government out there selling the Budget. And this is a Budget for all of Australia but it’s also a Budget that tackles the challenges that we face.

I begin by acknowledging the traditional owners of the land on which we meet, I pay my respects to elders past, present and emerging.

I am proud to lead an Australian Labor Government committed to the Uluru Statement from the Heart, including a constitutionally-enshrined Voice to Parliament.

Thank you everyone for that warm welcome and thank you, Jim, for your generous introduction.

I know you’re a proud Queenslander – and you can be very proud of the Budget you delivered two weeks ago.

ANIKA WELLS, MINISTER FOR AGED CARE AND SPORT: Good morning everyone and it is such a pleasure to host the Prime Minister here on the Sunshine Coast with good news. As the Minister for Aged Care, yesterday the Fair Work Commission delivered some hugely welcome and desperately needed good news for aged care workers and for everyone in Australia who desperately wants to see our aged care crisis fixed.

MATT ANDERSON, HOST: We are live at the brand new Griffith Regional Sports Centre, and I'm very privileged right now to be joined by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese. How are you?

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: I'm very well. What a great day it is here.

ANDERSON: Yes, the weather held out very nicely. Was that your doing?

STARRY, HOST: So we're joined this morning by the Prime Minister, Mr Anthony Albanese. Good morning, sir.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning, Starry. It's good to be with you, and it's fantastic to be in Griffith.

STARRY: Now, this is your second visit in as many months, but be honest, you're here for the food, this is just a bit of a side bonus to open up a sports centre. You must really love the place.

JOSH BURNS, MEMBER FOR MACNAMARA: Welcome, everyone, to The Avenue Children's Centre in Balaclava. It's a pretty special place. And the history of this place is that, actually, it's a community run early education centre that, last year, the City of Port Phillip tried to shut down. And because of the parents and the President, Laura and Louise are here with us today, the campaign was successful in saving The Avenue. It's so important for families to have access to early education centres like this that are local, but affordable as well.

The Australian and Victorian Governments have announced an $877 million Recovery Support package, supporting businesses, farmers, and not-for-profits to rebuild and return to trade as quickly as possible, following the recent devastating floods.

Grants of up to $50,000 are available to eligible businesses and not-for-profit organisations to support recovery efforts including rebuilding damaged infrastructure and replacing damaged assets.

DAVID PENBERTHY, HOST: To deal with the many cost of living issues facing us right now, we have our old mate from Two Tribes who we no longer call Albo now that he's the Prime Minister of Australia. Prime Minister, good morning. Thank you for your time.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning, David. Good to be with you. And an unlikely source of some respect there.

PENBERTHY: I know. It jars was my natural approach. But you know, the authority of office, we have to doff our cap to it.

FIFI BOX, HOST: We’re pumped about this, for the first time on our show we are joined by the Prime Minister, Albo, Anthony Albanese, and we've created his own jingle.

JINGLE: (To the tune of “Easy” by Commodores) It's Albanese.

PRIME MINISTER (IN JINGLE): My fellow Australians, thank you for this extraordinary honour.

JINGLE: Albanese's on the show this morning.
