National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Amendment Bill 2009
In Committee

by leave—I move Australian Greens amendments (1) and (3) on sheet 5878:
(1) Clause 2, page 2 (table item 2), omit the table item, substitute:
2. Schedule 1, Parts 1 and 2 | The 28th day after the day on which this Act receives the Royal Assent. | |
2A. Schedule 1, Part 3 | 1 July 2012. | 1 July 2012 |
(3) Schedule 1, page 11 (after line 5), at the end of the Schedule, add:
Part 3—Amendment relating to facility reporting threshold
38 Subparagraph 13(1)(d)(i)
Omit “25 kilotonnes”, substitute “10 kilotonnes”.
39 Subparagraphs 13(1)(d)(ii) and (iii)
Omit “100 terajoules”, substitute “40 terajoules”.
As I indicated in my second reading remarks, this is about reducing the threshold at which facilities are required to report. As I indicated, the government has set that at 25,000 tonnes. The Greens think it should be less than that, 10,000 tonnes, consistent with, as I said, more rigorous reporting frameworks being applied elsewhere. As I indicated, all emissions above one kilotonne must be accounted for under the European emissions trading scheme in terms of liable entities. I would like to see a more rigorous threshold in Australia, and I have so moved.
