I move:

That this bill be now read a second time.

The Australian Local Power Agency (Consequential Amendments) Bill 2021 makes a suite of amendments to existing clean energy legislation to enable ALPA to function effectively. In sum, it establishes ALPA as a sister agency to ARENA and the CEFC, allowing them to work as a trinity not only to drive investment in renewable energy but also to make sure that regional communities truly benefit from that investment. I commend the bill to the House and give my remaining time to the member for Warringah.
