What we learned: Sunday 23 June
That is all for today, folks. Thank you for joining us on the blog. Here is a wrap-up:
Former prime minister Paul Keating has said Peter Dutton’s push for nuclear is continuing the Coalition’s ‘manic’ climate denialism.
Police have responded to an incident at Westfield Marion in Oaklands Park in South Australia, with the centre sent into lockdown.
Environment Minister Tanya Plibersek says Coalition nuclear plan could cost $367bn and lacks detail;
Bird flu has been found in second NSW poultry farm, though the strain is not the same as the one causing concern globally;
Shadow minister for climate change and energy, Ted O’Brien won’t disclose how much nuclear power might contribute to the energy grid and has been unable to answer several questions about the Coalition plan;
Flood preparedness and emergency services will receive a $100m boost under a NSW government plan to bolster capacity in regions that have been badly affected.
We will be back tomorrow morning with all the latest.
ABC is reporting that SA police will be making a statement regarding the Westfield Marion incident at 5.30pm Adelaide time, so in roughly half an hour.
There is still little detail about what has occurred, but updates will be shared when we know more.
