Labor won't be supporting this motion today. We believe science should always be at the centre of environmental decision-making. This motion seeks to politicise the World Heritage listing process by referring to specific resource projects and political polling and is detrimental to public confidence and trust in the World Heritage process. Decisions about supporting consideration for World Heritage listing should be unbiased and based on the UNESCO criteria for the listing of natural heritage.
