US EditionAlbanese stares down his own MPs over fishy captain’s call
- Greens and Labor are clashing over amendments to the EPBC Act aimed at protecting Tasmania's salmon industry, which are expected to pass in parliament today.
- The amendments will end Environment Minister Tanya Plibersek's reconsideration of a 2012 approval for expanded salmon farming in Macquarie Harbour.
- Greens leader Adam Bandt accused the government of gutting environmental laws, while Prime Minister Anthony Albanese defended the amendments and attacked the Greens' stance on job creation.
- Tanya Plibersek stated the changes would apply to a very small number of decisions and reiterated that actions under the amendments are supervised by state territory governments and protection agencies.
