Anna Henderson's Canberra: why does the Coalition want to split the environment bill in two?

Audio

Description

As parliament resumes, Labor has a big bill to push through: changes to the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation (EPBC) Act, which has been widely criticised as no longer fit for purpose and hindering productivity. The bill will establish Australia;s first National Environemnt Protection Agency, but the Greens say they won't support it if it doesn't contain a so-called "climate trigger', which would give the federal Environment Minister more power to scrutinise and control high-polluting projects based on their climate effects. The Coalition wats the bill split in two, with the more contentious parts around environmental controls moved into a separate bill. Guest: Anna Henderson, SBS World News Chief Political Correspondent | National Press Club DirectorProducer: Catherine Zengerer
