NORTH WEST SHELF EXTENSION PROPOSAL
359. Hon Dr BRAD PETTITT to the parliamentary secretary representing the
Minister for Climate Action:
I refer to the responses to
questions on notice 1831 and 1857 regarding carbon offset data and note that we
are happy to receive responses in unconsolidated form.
(1) How many
carbon credits have been surrendered in the most recent financial year to
comply with WA Environmental Protection Authority requirements?
(2) How many and
what percentage of the credits surrendered were generated in Western Australia?

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question. I provide the following answer on behalf of the
Minister for Climate Action.
(1) Unconsolidated
data is not readily available from the department's information
management systems and would require several months to compile, requiring
extensive manual review of individual statements.
(2) It is unknown
without data consolidation and review.
