Note that the minister didn't actually answer my question. The environment minister has said that this government will introduce national environment standards after the passage of this piece of legislation currently before the House. Why would we trust that this government would do anything to act in the interests of the environment, when we know that all they're doing is acting in the interests of the fossil fuel industry?
