RENEWABLE ENERGY TARGET - MODELS
I refer to the recent announcement by the Victorian government to introduce a state-based renewal energy target, and this government’s commitment to investigate a renewable energy target for Western Australia. (1) What model or models is the government considering to implement a renewable energy target? (2) Will the minister table the details of those models and progress reports? (3) How many times has the interjurisdictional working group on the renewable energy targets met in the past two years? (4) Where are the reports kept? (5) Why has Victoria been moving independently of that process? Hon KIM CHANCE
