About this episode

The search for a missing five-year-old girl in the Northern Territory continues as political discussions on fuel security and Indigenous veteran treatment arise.

The search for a five-year-old girl believed to have been snatched from her Northern Territory outback community is now in its third day and helicopters and heat-sensor drones have been deployed. The federal opposition has launched its own plan to boost Australia's fuel security, as the war in the Middle East continues to cause havoc with global supplies. The head of the RSL has described people who booed and heckled Indigenous veterans and elders at ANZAC Day dawn services as 'misguided.'
