National energy guarantee
Opposition leader Bill Shorten says Labor’s offers of bipartisanship have been knocked back on successive schemes, but commits to put the dumped National Energy Guarantee back on the table if his party wins the next election. Shorten says the Neg is not the scheme Labor would have designed, but Australia needs an approach supported by both sides of parliament to tackle the ‘disaster’ of climate change and bring down power prices. He blames the Coalition for ‘five years of denial’ on climate.
