Chair Gina Cass-Gottlieb says it’s not ‘accurate’ to claim the government’s policies were making Australia uncompetitive

Labor’s deal with the Greens to pass the safeguard mechanism also sparked claims of reduced incentives to increase gas supply, despite the fact a new net zero emissions requirement was only imposed on liquified natural gas projects for export.

The related mandatory code of conduct for gas suppliers has “an express policy objective that is stated in that consultation, is that the reasonable pricing framework and the process under the code is to be consistent with incentives to invest in new supply”, she said.
