National Cabinet met virtually today to discuss the national crisis of gender-based violence.

First Ministers are committed to stopping the homicides and achieving our shared goal of ending violence against women and children in a generation.

National Cabinet agreed to a number of priorities for all our governments, building on efforts under way under the National Plan to End Violence against Women and Children 2022-2032, including:

STEVEN MILES, PREMIER OF QUEENSLAND: Good afternoon everyone and welcome to a really important announcement for Queensland and for Australia. I welcome Prime Minister, Minister Husic and Ambassador Kennedy. Good governments focus on the issues of the day and the concerns of the day, but also make sure that they are looking to the future and delivering the outcomes that will create the jobs of the future. And you know, it's a bit over 25 years since Queensland set out to be the smart state, and now today we continue to reap the rewards of those forward thinking decisions.

JOANNE ALFORD, PRINCIPAL OF THE CENTRALIAN SENIOR SCHOOL: I’d just like to welcome the Prime Minister to Centralian Senior College today, we're very proud for this visit. Quite often we get a negative narrative around who our students are, but today they've been able to shine and shine for the Prime Minister and celebrate the funding that we've received through the on country learning money. Those funds have actually been transformational for our outcomes for our young people. So we really wanted to express our gratitude - thank you so much.

The Albanese and Miles Governments are harnessing the power and potential of quantum technologies to help deliver a Future Made in Australia and make Brisbane a tech manufacturing powerhouse.

The Australian and Queensland Governments will invest almost $1 billion into frontier technology company PsiQuantum to build the world’s first fault tolerant quantum computer in Brisbane.

STEWART BRASH, HOST: Five weeks to the day after Alice Springs witnessed the riot outside the Todd Tavern and the violence at Hidden Valley Town Camp, and 15 months after his last visit to Alice at the height of the summer of chaos, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has returned to Alice Springs.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: It's terrific to be here in Alice Springs and to be here having a look at such a, literally, concrete example of the difference that our investment is making. The $250 million Central Australia Package is looking at the full suite of services. This health hub here, run by the Aboriginal Congress, will make an enormous difference for the programs that they operate, particularly for the youngest Territorians here to be able to get the health services that this magnificent organisation provides.

KYLE SANDILANDS, HOST: Prime Minister, you're on Kyle and Jackie. And also Sunrise. Good morning.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning. How are you going, everyone?

JACQUELINE LAST, HOST: It’s a party.

PRIME MINISTER: This is very loose. Who would have thought that Kyle and Jackie O's show going to Melbourne would be loose?

SANDILANDS: Exactly. Now, Prime Minister, it's also my wedding anniversary today as well. Can you believe it?

NATALIE BARR, HOST: Returning to our top story now. Domestic and family violence has been declared a national crisis after tens of thousands rallied over the weekend. The Prime Minister has called an emergency National Cabinet meeting for this Wednesday, which will solely focus on the horrific rise in violence against women.

MATT SHIRVINGTON, HOST: However, Anthony Albanese has been labelled a liar by one of the organisers of yesterday's rally after he claimed he was denied to speak at the event.

I'm proud to be here with women, men, boys and girls saying - We want violence against women and children to stop.

To be clear, we did ask to speak, myself and Katy, and were told that that wasn't possible and that's fine. I respect the organisers’ right to do that.

We are here today to demand that governments of all levels must do better, including my own, including every state and territory government.

We're here as well to say that society, and Australia, must do better.

SARAH ABO, HOST: Prime Minister, good morning. So, what did happen?
