Dr RATNAM (Northern Metropolitan) (14:28:09) — Thank you, Minister, for your response. So far only the ACT Labor Greens government is sticking its neck out for the climate and renewable energy in the debate on the NEG, indicating that they will find it very difficult to support the NEG without a more ambitious target and if the scheme continues to back coal. So my question is: will the Andrews government join with the Labor Greens government in the ACT and stand up for renewable energy by rejecting the NEG unless it provides for an increased emissions reduction target and a fast transition to renewable energy and away from coal?
