But of course, we still have 36 Australians who are missing and unaccounted for, which is just gut-wrenching for all Australians and for the Nepalese Australian community in particular, whom I\u2019m spending time with later today.\n But all I can say is that we\u2019re continuing to send any support that the Nepalese government asked for.\nBowen says joint statement on China \u2018strong\u2019Chris Bowen has called a joint statement about China\u2019s missile test \u201cstrong\u201d despite it not referring to the nation by name.One of the biggest talking points of this week\u2019s Pacific Islands Forum been the lack of a regional response to China\u2019s nuclear-capable inter-continental ballistic missile test in July, as AAP reports.The communique includes a reference to the Fiji-led Ocean of Peace declaration made last year, which states the region should be free from coercion and militarisation. However, it doesn\u2019t name China.Speaking to ABC\u2019s Radio National, the climate change and energy minister said:\n double quotation markI think that leaders in the Pacific were deeply concerned: one, that a missile test was done without permission of the countries whose airspace had travelled through, and two, that there was no notice of the said missile test. So I think it\u2019s both. It is a concern about sovereignty and safety, and one that Australia fully backs. \n It\u2019s a pretty strong statement, Sally, and one that Australia played a role in crafting.\n\u2018Serious concerns\u2019 for missing Australians, Chalmers saysThe Albanese government still has \u201cserious concerns\u201d for the Australians missing in the Nepal-Tibet floods, Jim Chalmers says.Speaking to ABC\u2019s News Breakfast, the treasurer said it was \u201cgood news that two Australians have been located overnight [but] we are concerned for the 36 who are still unaccounted for\u201d.\n double quotation markThat would be a huge relief to the loved ones of these two Australians who\u2019ve been located, but we still have very serious concerns for the 36 Australians that we haven\u2019t been able to be located yet.\nChalmers said about 40 of Australia\u2019s \u201cbest\u201d personnel are either on the ground or en route to assist in recovery and humanitarian efforts. Unicef have warned overnight that at least 22,000 children urgently need safe drinking water and better sanitation.Coalition says main focus of tobacco excise cut is tackling organised crimeAnne Ruston, the shadow minister for health and aged care, spoke this morning to tout the Coalition\u2019s plans to slash the tobacco excise by 80%, saying the effort is designed to \u201cbreak the business model\u201d of organised crime.Ruston spoke to RN Breakfast this morning, saying that after the government wrested control back of the cigarette market with a lower excise, then it could step in to \u201cput in place the things to try and make sure that, first of all, we encourage Australians not to smoke, not to use nicotine products\u201d.Ruston was asked if cheaper tobacco products would lead to an uptick in smoking rates. She had this to say:\n double quotation markThis is very much designed to try and get the government back in control of the nicotine market, not organised crime gangs.\n We are hoping that the combined package of what we\u2019re proposing here, not just the dropping of the excise, but the regulation of the market and making it certainly more difficult for children to access these products. In the enforcement surge and the anti-smoking and anti-vaping campaigns, we are hoping to put downward pressure on smoking rates.\nShe went on to say the purpose of the policy was to end the black market and, while the Coalition wanted to see smoking rates decline, \u201cthe absolute focus of this is to get this market out of the hands of organised crime\u201d.Anne Ruston.

Let\u2019s get to it.Two Australians found in Nepal-Tibet floodsTwo more Australians have been confirmed safe in the aftermath of the devastating Nepal-Tibet floods.The pair, who were previously uncontactable, have been found safe and do not require consular assistance.It brings the total number of Australians missing in the floods down to 36.Fifteen people in the Australian disaster assistance response team are expected to arrive in Kathmandu later Friday, while seven AFP disaster victim identification specialists are set to arrive on Saturday morning.More than 1,200 people have been confirmed dead in the disaster, with more than 5,500 people missing.Josh TaylorPauline Hanson to make cost of living \u2018worse\u2019, union boss warnsAsked if she saw her role as one of countering One Nation on the cost of living, Donnelly said Pauline Hanson\u2019s party \u201csays one thing and does another\u201d.\n double quotation markThe reality is that Pauline Hanson\u2019s track record is voting against penalty rates, voting against rights for casual and gig workers.\n She\u2019s opposed the minimum wage. She\u2019s most recently suggested it should be easier to sack workers.\n Our job, as the union movement, is to make sure our members and workers understand that is what she stands for. And if you\u2019re worried about cost of living, Pauline Hanson is going to make it worse.\nPauline Hanson. Photograph: Joel Carrett/AAPWorkers should have a say in when and how AI is used, ACTU secretary saysJosh TaylorThe new secretary of the Australian Council of Trade Unions, Melissa Donnelly, has said cost of living issues and the rollout of AI in workplaces are two major focuses of her new role.Donnelly told ABC\u2019s 7.30 program workers \u201cabsolutely deserve\u201d a say on AI in their workplaces, but it would not amount to a veto.She said unions will test the existing laws demanding workers are consulted over significant impacts of new technology before suggesting the laws need to be strengthened for AI.\n double quotation markThere are a whole range of workplace issues, and workers\u2019 rights issues, that arise with the advent of AI.\nThe stronger guardrails, Donnelly said, would include the capacity of workers to have a say on \u201cwhen it\u2019s used and how it\u2019s used\u201d.\n double quotation markThere\u2019s a broader conversation that we should be having as a nation about what AI means and how we regulate it. It\u2019s not a tropical cyclone bearing down on the coast. It is technology. We\u2019ve seen governments step in on issues like social media and set some guardrails.\n We have all sorts of commentators from Bill Gates to others saying that we\u2019ve got to have some rules around how this works, we\u2019ve got to have protections, because we need to protect workers into there future. We need to make sure there are meaningful and quality jobs going forward.\nMelissa Donnelly. Photograph: ACTUKrishani DhanjiLabor scraps course, citing \u2018integrity\u2019Labor says it will shut down a management course amid fears it is being \u201cmisused by shonks\u201d and providing a back door into Australia.As the government faces increased pressure to curb overseas migration, Labor says the graduate diploma of management (learning) which is registered at 452 institutions, showed students either were enrolled but weren\u2019t even starting the course, weren\u2019t completing the course or were transferring out of it.It\u2019s the first time the government will use powers to shut down courses due to concerns over their integrity \u2013 though students currently completing the course will be able to finish it.The assistant minister in charge, Julian Hill, pinned the blame on the Coalition:\n double quotation markThe Coalition left behind a shocking mess in 2022, with unsustainably high growth in student numbers in the least reputable parts of the sector, and our high-quality student visa being degraded into a low-rent illegal work visa and misused by shonks.\n Australia continues to welcome genuine international students seeking a premium education and must maintain a ruthless focus on quality, integrity and a great student experience.\nJulian Hill.
