Loading In Indonesia, the series of deadly eruptions have killed at least nine people during this month and forced thousands of people to evacuate. The volcanic status in the country continues to be categorised as “above normal” by Indonesian authorities. Mount Lewotobi Laki-laki – one of the 120 active volcanoes in Indonesia – also remains on a level-four alert, the most serious warning. “We appreciate the changing situation is frustrating, and we thank customers for their understanding and patience,” a Qantas statement said. Both carriers assured customers they would be contacted to arrange their updated travel plans. 11.44am Unemployment rate holds steady By Millie Muroi The unemployment rate has held steady for the third month in a row, with the economy adding 15,900 jobs last month. Data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics today came in broadly in line with consensus expectations, although the economy added fewer jobs than the 25,000 expected by economists. It is the smallest increase in jobs added since March this year. Loading The number of unemployed people rose by about 8000, but the unemployment rate remained about 0.6 percentage points above its recent low of 3.5 per cent in June 2023. The participation rate – which is the proportion of working-age people employed or looking for a job – edged down from 67.2 per cent in September to 67.1 per cent in October, driven partly by population growth. Monthly hours worked rose by about 0.1 per cent in October, in line with the growth in employment, while the underemployment rate – the proportion of people working fewer hours than they would like – fell by 0.1 percentage point. NSW lost 19,000 jobs and Victoria lost 700 jobs, while Queensland added 38,000 jobs. 11.30am Cbus CEO blames third-party administrator for ‘unacceptable’ delays By Sumeyya Ilanbey Cbus chief executive Kristian Fok has blamed high staff turnover at the organisation it had outsourced claims handling to for the significant delays in dealing with death and disability insurance claims. The Australian Securities and Investments Commission is suing Cbus over allegations the fund failed to identify and prevent delays that affected 10,000 members since August 2022. Appearing before a Senate inquiry on Thursday morning, Fok apologised to the 10,000 Cbus members – as well as their families – whose claims were delayed, with the majority of them not resolved for more than a year. CEO of Cbus Super Kristian Fok appears via video link during a public hearing of the Economics References Committee. Credit: AAPIMAGE “The delays are unacceptable, but we’re not withholding money, absolutely none at all,” Fok said. “The delays, as I indicated, have primarily emanated from our administrator. We are still responsible for it. We need to ensure as best as we can that we can rectify it, and we have been doing that. We had experience with the administrator, a large amount of turnover, and need to uplift on training, there’s been quite a lot of actions we’ve had to instigate.” Loading Cbus entered into an agreement with the Australian Administration Services in 2020 to handle the insurance claims, according to documents filed in the Federal Court. But ASIC noted the fund was ultimately responsible under the law. Fok told the Senate committee the fund recognised the delays added to the distress families were experiencing at a difficult time. “Like many institutions experiencing rapid growth, it has taken time for Cbus to mature and attract the right personnel to meet our needs,” Fok said. “Since being appointed as CEO last year, I have, with the strong endorsement by the board, initiated some significant changes in our leadership and organisational capabilities in order to address the need to improve the outcomes that we deliver for our members.” Advertisement 11.06am No role for crypto in Australian economy: RBA governor By Millie Muroi Reserve Bank governor Michele Bullock says cryptocurrency• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта, including Bitcoin• Экономика » Финансы » Платежные средства » Платежные системы интернета » Криптовалюта » Bitcoin, is not an alternative currency and there is no role for it in the Australian economy.

But, you know, I don’t really see a role for it, certainly in the Australian economy or payment system.” 10.30am Watch: Cbus CEO appears at parliamentary hearing Days after the corporate watchdog announced a landmark lawsuit against super fund Cbus for delays in handling death and disability insurance claims, the fund’s chief executive, Kristian Fok, appeared before a parliamentary hearing. Fok was questioned by the economics reference committee. 10.23am Sacking Rudd would force PM to reckon with his own Trump• Объект человек » Персоналии по алфавиту » Персоналии на Тр » Трамп, Дональд criticisms: Dutton By Josefine Ganko Opposition Leader Peter Dutton says the government is in a difficult conundrum after Donald Trump• Объект человек » Персоналии по алфавиту » Персоналии на Тр » Трамп, Дональд’s US election victory because several key figures previously criticised the president• Государство » Государственное устройство США » Президент США • Соединённые Штаты Америки (США) » Государственное устройство США » Президент США • Соединённые Штаты Америки (США) » Политика США » Политики США » Президент США • Политика » Политика США » Политики США » Президент США-elect.

Advertisement 10.05am Free RSV vaccine for babies in NSW In news from NSW, all infants in the state will be offered free vaccinations against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), the ubiquitous virus responsible for putting 12,000 babies in hospital annually. The NSW government’s $16.6 million RSV prevention program will cover the cost of nirsevimab (Beyfortus), a monoclonal antibody immunisation, for babies under 12 months from mid-March 2025. RSV is a significant cause of respiratory illness infecting up to 90 per cent of children within their first two years and is most severe in under one-year-olds who can develop bronchiolitis and pneumonia. Loading The program complements the federal government’s decision to add free RSV vaccines for pregnant women to the National Immunisation Program from early 2025, which will also help protect their newborns from the virus. The Victorian government made the same move in October. Health Minister Ryan Park said the program will ensure that all infants who are not protected through maternal vaccination are offered immunisation. “There is nothing more stressful than having a sick baby, especially when it is something potentially serious like RSV,” Park said. 9.47am Technical gaffe allows Victorian students access to exam questions By Gemma Grant and Caroline Schelle To Victoria, where thousands of VCE students had access to official exam questions because of a technical gaffe made by the Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority (VCAA). Loading Students could highlight sections of materials uploaded to the VCAA website, known as cover pages, which appeared to be blank. Selecting the document revealed “hidden” text, which could be copied into a new document and formatted to reveal the additional examination content, as reported by the Herald Sun . Cover pages are routinely made available to the public by the VCAA in the lead-up to exams. The documents are intended to indicate the structure, number of questions and length of time to complete the assessment – but not the content. Read more about the revelation, and the VCAA’s response, here. 9.17am Dutton delays decision on tax cut pledge to high-income earners By Josefine Ganko Opposition Leader Peter Dutton says his highest priority is bringing down inflation, as he continues stepping back from his promise to legislate further tax cuts for high-income earners if the Coalition wins government. During an appearance on ABC’s RN Breakfast on Wednesday, he distanced himself from the Coalition’s pledge to reinstate further tax cuts for high-income earners that were scrapped in the changes to stage 3. When asked about those comments, Dutton repeated that he would confirm his plans after seeing more budget numbers. Loading “The Liberal Party will always be the party of lower taxes and lower interest rates because we manage the economy more efficiently. I think that’s [a] really important point to make,” Dutton began. “Next point is that we have a look at the numbers in a pre-budget context and decide what it is we can afford for our country. Because the highest priority at the moment is to bring down inflation.” Dutton said his decisions on where money is spent in the economy would be based on reducing inflation to bring interest rates down.
