Tribute to Bali bombing victims
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese will attend the Sydney commemoration of the Bali bombing in Coogee this morning to honour those killed in the attack.
Observed since 2003, the Bali Commemoration Ceremony is held at the Bali Memorial at Dolphins Point.
The site was renamed in honour of the six members of the local Coogee Dolphins football team who were killed along with friends and family members in the bombing attack at the Sari Club in Kuta, Bali.
Eighty-eight white doves will be released as friends and family gather to remember the loved ones they lost on that day.
The area was chosen to honour the six members of the Coogee Dolphins football team killed in the blast.
In total, 43 people from NSW died in the bombings.
Three bombs were detonated at two nightclubs in Kuta, with responsibility claimed by the militant group Jemaah Islamiyah.
The explosion killed 202 people and wounded more than 100.
The birds will be released after the names of the victims are read aloud and a minute's silence is observed.
A large-scale sculpture will also be unveiled by artist Sasha Reid.
Man shot in Cabramatta
An investigation is underway after a man was shot in Sydney's south-west overnight.
Emergency services were called to a unit on Park Road, Cabramatta, just after 11pm yesterday where they found a 40-year-old man with a gunshot wound.
He was treated by paramedics and taken to Liverpool hospital in a stable condition.
Detectives are searching the area this morning for evidence.
Anyone with information or dash cam footage is urged to contact police, as investigations continue.
Body found after floodwaters subside
A man reported missing in the state's central west at the weekend died in floodwaters while trapped in his car, police believe.
The body of a 46-year-old man, who was last seen on Sunday, was found inside a car which had been submerged south of Bathurst.
After a two-day search, a police helicopter spotted the vehicle at an intersection at Charlton on Tuesday morning.
It was retrieved from the water and a man's body was found inside.
NSW Police said last night the body had not been formally identified but it is believed to be that of the missing man.
A report will be prepared for the coroner.
Motorists are reminded not to drive into flooded roadways while the state faces more severe weather.
HSC exams starting
More than 75,000 students are preparing themselves for the first English paper for the NSW Higher School Certificate.
Students will sit for the exams at the state's 780 testing centres across 18 days, ending on November 4.
Education Minister Sarah Mitchell said the logistics of the exam have been massive.
"It's really important to thank everyone involved in running the HSC, the written exams are a mammoth operation," Ms Mitchell said.
"Students will be involved in more than 25,000 exam sessions. It's certainly a big logistical task and everybody is working hard to make sure things run smoothly for our students and I'm certain they're looking forward to the final day of their HSC."
Results will be made available on December 15.
Cancer care during pandemic
Cancer patients have reported a generally positive experience of care during the COVID-19 pandemic.
A report by the Bureau of Health Information (BHI), which surveyed 8,000 patients, found the majority said they received very good or good care at one of the 42 outpatient cancer facilities in NSW.
The report also highlighted the outpatient cancer clinic experiences of people who speak a language other than English at home, compared with those who speak English.
BHI chief executive Dr Diane Watson said language barriers had led to conflicting information for patients.
"We saw that survey respondents who speak a language other than English at home reported significantly less-positive experiences across some key measures," Dr Watson said.
"Reassuringly, patients were overwhelmingly positive about the care they received in outpatient cancer clinics, which, it is important to remember, was delivered while NSW continued to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic."
