26th Jun 2024, 10:28 AM – Representatives Motions - Environment - Let another vote take place
Summary
EditThe majority voted against a motion introduced by Ryan MP Elizabeth Watson-Brown (Greens), which means it failed. The motion was to suspend the usual procedural rules - known as standing orders - in order to let another vote take place.
Motion text
That so much of the standing and sessional orders be suspended as would prevent the Member for Ryan moving the following motion:
That the House:
(1) notes the Minister for the Environment yesterday approved Gina Reinhart's Atlas gas project until 2080, which will destroy koala habitat, exacerbate the climate crisis and ignores the IEA's warning that no new coal, oil and gas projects can be built in order to reach net zero by 2050;
(2) condemns the fact that since the Government came to office, 9 gas projects and 5 coal projects have been approved while ten oil and gas fields covering 46,758 square kilometres of ocean have been released by the Resources Minister; and
(3) insists that the Atlas approval decision be overturned.
