Good afternoon. A 23-year-old airport worker is assisting border force authorities after they seized 52 vials of suspected hazardous waste during a raid at a Sydney home yesterday. Tributes have continued to flow for Michael Parkinson, who has died at the age of 88.
And the woman at the centre of the suspected mushrooms poisonings, Erin Patterson, has asked the media waiting outside her home to back off. It comes as the Department of Agriculture, which is in charge of making sure imported food is safe to eat, has said it will not be investigating the mushroom supply chain.
