My question is to the Prime Minister. Today I met with the youth climate delegation in parliament, who are calling on the government to adopt a duty of care act, such as that proposed by Senator David Pocock through the Climate Change Amendment (Duty of Care and Intergenerational Climate Equity) Bill 2023. Prime Minister, do you accept there is a need for such a bill, to ensure governments have a legislated duty to consider the impacts of any decisions they make that could harm the climate, health and wellbeing of future generations?
