I continue to direct my question to the Minister for Regional Development, Territories and Local Government. My community of North Sydney cares deeply about the development potential for regional and rural Australia. Arguably, one of the biggest challenges that regional and rural Australia is currently facing is climate change. I would like to understand: does the minister responsible for regional development have an opinion on whether a climate trigger should be included as part of the approval process for future developments, or what other measures is the minister prepared to argue for to protect regional and rural communities?
