The events at Bondi Junction this afternoon are absolutely devastating. My thoughts and the thoughts of everyone in our community are with the victims and their loved ones. Thank you to our incredible police, first responders and some very brave citizens for their actions.

We’re expanding mental health support for veterans across the country. Open Arms provides veterans focused mental health support through the lived experience of peers like Emma. It’s free for veterans and their families, it’s effective and they’re around the nation.

We’re expanding Defence housing options in South Australia.   They’re close to the Adelaide CBD, central to work and practical for Defence members and their families.   Pleasure to be joined by my friend Steve Georganas MP at yesterday’s opening.

The deeds of the Australian troops in Papua New Guinea are what the Anzac legend is made of. Here at the Kokoda Track Memorial Walkway, we remember the men who fought and died, the locals who supported them and the families who mourn them. Lest we forget.

An honour to visit the Labuan War Cemetery here in Malaysia. Many of the Australian soldiers who rest here were held as POWs during WW2. Their stories are of courage and resilience in the face of hardship and atrocity. And it’s a story that will never be forgotten.
