Senator McKim has submitted a proposal, under standing order 75, today, shown at item 12 on today's Order of Business:

The need for the Government to urgently ensure Santos fixes the 19 year leak of potent heat-trapping methane in Darwin and for the relevant ministers to also explain the failure of the CSIRO, Clean Energy Regulator and NOPSEMA who are reported to have had knowledge of the leak and have taken no action to protect the public.
