The caps should apply only to domestic supply and preferably without affecting current contracts.Advertisement The caps will not apply to export contracts and will not restrict the companies’ capacity to benefit from the high international prices. Presumably on the coal side there will need to be agreement to ensure supply to the domestic market, like what the federal government can deliver through the Australian Domestic Gas Security Mechanism.
