My question is to the Minister for the Environment and Water. The Wilderness Society has said that the Environment Protection Reform Bill would increase opportunities for political influence on decisions and use new loopholes to weaken nature protections. Without an independent EPA making decisions, and both major parties continuing to accept political donations from fossil fuel corporations, have you received legal advice about higher corruption risks under the new laws?
