Collette Dinnigan's designer Sydney semi sells for $20m
Australian fashion queen Collette Dinnigan has quietly sold her Darling Point home in Sydney's eastern suburbs for $20 million, clocking her heftiest deal to date in a string of stylish homes the creative dynamo has bought, renovated and on-sold.
After paying $7 million for the Hampden Avenue home in 2017, the fashion designer and her husband, hotelier and realtor Bradley Cocks, have spent the last few years renovating and upgrading the property, which is technically a semi-detached given the four-bedroom abode shares a wall with the neighbouring property and occupies a petite 305-square-metre block.

'Suckerpunch' electricity price increase locked in for eastern states
Your web browser is no longer supported. To improve your experience update it here BREAKING Australian killed, another injured in Bali villa shooting incident Prices will increase by more than 13 per cent in parts of the country, but one state may be shielded from the worst of it. "This will be a suckerpunch for a lot of customers," Canstar spokesperson Sally Tindall said. The cost of electricity is about to jump higher than predicted across Australia's east coast. (Nine) AGL and Origin Energy locked in new prices for millions of customers today. Starting on July 1, AGL's prices will jump 13.5 per cent in New South Wales. They will also rise 8 per cent in South Australia, 7.5 per cent in Queensland and 6.8 per cent in Victoria - adding $110 to an average Victorian household's bill. Today, the federal opposition slammed the government's action on energy prices. "They imposed price caps that haven't worked, they've completely failed, and we continue to see price hikes," Shadow Treasurer Angus Taylor said. Origin Energy hasn't locked in its electricity charges for Victoria just yet. Gas will cost the average Victorian household an additional $85 per year, which is the largest increase for any state in the country. "There are plenty of options and payment plans available," Origin's Chief Marketing Officer Catherine Anderson said. "We would really encourage our customers to reach out to us, we're here to help." The cost of electricity is about to jump higher than predicted across Australia's east coast. (Nine) For those struggling to pay, some help is on the way. Every household will automatically get a $150 electricity discount thanks to the federal government, and another $100 is being offered to concession card holders in Victoria. For everyone else, the advice is to shop around. "Don't get mad - get even," Tindall said. "By shopping around you, could potentially save hundreds of dollars off your electricity bill." Other retailers will lock in their prices in the coming days. national Victoria power Electricity CONTACT US

‘Three-pronged attack': Australia's commercial defence future analysed

'There are a variety of steps that each company must do to each of those elements, if you're a supplier that is different to being a company that wishes to be a builder, as such.

‘Not an easy path': Specialist outlines steps to enter Australian defence industry

'These things are always complex,' Mr Clark told Sky News host Ed Boyd. 'It is not an easy path to tread to become a supplier into defence, but in many ways, nor should it be.

'The reality, of course, is that you need to be diverse, you need to ensure that you have the best capability possible, and you need to make sure you are ready to take on a defence contract.'
