It was reported by Fairfax on 21 November that Minister Bishop said the Great Barrier Reef 'is not under threat from climate change'. The government's own Great Barrier Reef Outlook Reports of 2009 and 2014 unequivocally state:
Climate change remains the most serious threat to the Great Barrier Reef.
Does Minister Bishop reject the science from the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority or will she now correct her advice to President Obama? (Time expired)
