Thursday Headlines: Greens officially launch their campaign, Coalition costings to be released, MKR contestants facing abuse claims named, Kylie Minogue honoured for her contribution to the Australian music industry and Albo responds to Joe Exotic endorsement.
 
Deep Dive: For the first time in 30 years a new form of depression treatment will be added to the PBS, making it astronomically cheaper to buy for those suffering with the mental illness.   

The nasal spray form of esketamine has been approved for patients with treatment resistant depression and is expected to help up to 30,000 Australians.  

In this episode of The Briefing, Tara Cassidy is joined by Garth Camac, a veteran whose life’s been changed for the better thanks to the new drug, as well as Professor in Psychiatry Malcolm Hopwood on why it's taken so long.
