She said the code only prohibits the promotion or endorsement of sunscreens for some sort of payment.

“The measure is designed to ensure, as much as possible, that testimonials ... are genuine and not influenced by commercial interests.”

A spokesperson for the health minister said he recognised the independence of the TGA as a regulator of therapeutic goods.

Property mogul amends Point Piper DA

There’s never a quiet moment in Australia’s wealthiest suburb, and humble Point Piper homeowner, Denis O’Neil knows all too well.

The local property developer and well-known yachtsman has amended a pre-approved development application modification to Woollahra Council for his proposed $5 million Wunulla Road rebuild.

The DA, seen by Emerald City, seeks permission to accommodate equipment, bulk storage and a sauna, as well as relocating an approved powder room to the Point Piper fixer-upper.

O’Neil doesn’t expect the minimal changes to the project will cause a brouhaha with his well-to-do neighbours.

“The modification makes slight changes to the existing approval which are mainly internal,” he said in a statement to Emerald City.

“We don’t believe that these minor changes will cause any concerns for other property owners.”

Once considered one of Sydney’s wealthiest and low-key eastern suburbs figures and playmate of Paul Keating, the father-of-four earned a crust from a substantial property portfolio and development company Addenbrooke, of which he is chairman.

O’Neil snapped up the harbour-front property in 2019 for $5.4 million, not a bad investment on what is considered Sydney’s second-best street. Not to mention the proposed build is a mere stone’s throw from Australia’s most expensive street, Wolseley Road, home to some of the country’s most well-to-do.

The exclusive enclave is home to Sydney Football chairman Scott Barlow and jeweller wife Alina, fashion doyenne Charlie Brown as well as former prime minister Malcolm Turnbull and wife Lucy who opted to reside in their pink Spanish mission palace instead of The Lodge during his tenure as PM from 2015 to 2018.

Survivor contestants heading to Samoa for the latest season

It seems like every man and their dog is escaping Sydney for their Euro Summer sojourn after a two-year COVID-induced hiatus. But it’s not just the well-to-do eastern suburbs social set who are escaping the Aussie winter.

Australian Survivor contestants and crew are gearing up to battle it out in Samoa next month.

Coincidentally, Emerald City crossed paths with crew members last week, moments after getting their travel vaccinations, when one loose-lipped crew member accidentally also let slip that they are heading off to the Pacific Islands on August 1.

Whoops! The latest series is said to be putting its own spin on one of Survivor’s most beloved themes: Heroes vs. Villains.

The series will see 12 former Australian Survivor castaways divided into two tribes based on their status as either a ‘hero’ or a ‘villain’ alongside 12 new players.

Rumours are swirling that former AFL player Shaun Hampson, who competed on Champions vs. Contenders in 2019, and last year’s runner-up George Mladenov aka King George of Bankstown will feature.

Season one winner Kristie Bennett is said to be making a comeback in an attempt to become the franchise’s third two-time winner. The latest season abroad comes after the last two seasons were filmed domestically, in Queensland, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
