Episode Details

Western Australias Premier Roger Cook activates emergency fuel powers to address supply issues from the Middle East conflict, without declaring a full-scale emergency. Energy Minister Amber-Jade Sanderson secures these powers under the Fuel, Energy and Power Resources Act, requiring suppliers to disclose fuel stocks and prioritize distribution. The government cuts fuel excise in half, leading to price drops and long lines at gas stations. Suppliers must provide information within 48 hours or face fines, with no impact expected on everyday consumers.
