Minister, I understand that, under environmental law reforms that have been flagged, the government plans to allow proponents under the EPBC Act to pay into a restoration fund rather than undertaking offsets themselves. I'm interested to know whether the ban on offsets also applies to the government's using money from that fund to buy certificates from the nature repair market.
