Oil Exploration

[by video link] My question is also to Senator Birmingham, representing the minister for resources. Last week the New South Wales Liberal member for Mackellar, Jason Falinski, called on the House to oppose oil and gas drilling off the coast of Sydney and oppose the renewal of the petroleum exploration permit PEP 11 licence. Is the federal government aware of the reasons the member for Mackellar doesn't want to see new oil and gas exploration off the New South Wales coastline? And does your government agree with Mr Falinski?
