Good morning. The Commonwealth Games is coming to a close, with Australia on top of the medal table; New South Wales politics is deep in the Barilaro inquiry; and Grease star and activist Olivia Newton John has died, aged 73.
A subsidiary of the supplements company Blackmores left a pregnancy multivitamin on shelves for nearly a year despite hundreds of complaints that it was contaminated with mould-like black spots, a former staff member has alleged. Peter Ellis alleged FIT-BioCeuticals brushed aside concerns about its products, including pregnancy vitamins and vitamin D drops being used by a children’s hospital, in potential breach of quality regulations. Blackmores said a Therapeutic Goods Administration investigation did not require stock to be quarantined or recalled.
