Climate Change

My question is to the Prime Minister. Recently, the International Court of Justice found that states have a binding international obligation to assess and limit emissions, including scope 3 emissions, to avert significant climate harm. Scope 3 includes captive carbon in exported coal and gas. If the government won't include a climate trigger in environment laws or include scope 3 emissions in the safeguards mechanism, what steps will you take to ensure Australia's compliance with the ICJ ruling?
