We'll move off the lack of consultation on this and anything else that happened as part of this dodgy deal. But, on the broad issue of the amendment, I would like to go to some remarks from the Grattan Institute, which, on the issue of applying scope 3 to the Beetaloo, stated it was 'the weirdest thing' they've ever come across. They said:

If the governments decide together to deal with scope 3 emissions, it will have significant financial implications.

Noting that reflection on where things might and up, what modelling has been done relating to the financial implications since the time that amendment was tabled and subsequently agreed to?
