My question is to the Minister for Regional Development, Territories and Local Government. My community of North Sydney cares deeply about regional and rural Australia, recognising that many in these communities are already survivors of some of the worst significant severe climate events seen in the past decade. As the minister responsible for these communities and local government, do you support the inclusion of a climate trigger as part of the approval process for future developments? Or, otherwise, what measures or protections are you arguing for to ensure that these communities are spared the impacts of worsening climate events?
