My question is to the Minister for Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Local Government. In order to reach and exceed the government's 43 per cent emissions reduction target all sectors of our economy must adapt. That includes how we fund infrastructure projects like the Western Harbour Tunnel and the Beaches Link in my electorate of North Sydney. Will the minister make infrastructure funding for projects such as these contingent on a project delivering a carbon base case which would track and limit emissions over the life cycle of the project from design through to construction?
