Episode description

As Brisbane emerges from another costly lockdown, there's pressure on the Federal Government to speed-up the vaccine roll-out. Plus, natural disasters are costing us more, so how about a new way to pay? And single parents, especially women, were far more likely than others to lose work at the height of the pandemic and are far more likely to still be out of work now.

Guests:

Professor Richard Holden, UNSW Business School

Kate Griffiths, Policy Analyst, The Grattan Institute

Mark Ogge, Principal Adviser, The Australia Institute
