Queensland-Federal Standoff Over Oil Reserve

Queensland-Federal Standoff Over Oil Reserve

Published 1 month, 1 week ago
Description

Queensland Premier David Crisafulli is advocating for drilling into a significant oil reserve in the Taroom Trough, citing national interest. However, federal red tape and lack of a submitted plan are causing delays. Federal Environment Minister Murray Watt asserts that Queensland can fast-track the project under current rules. The project could potentially be Australias first new oilfield in fifty years, but the standoff over new federal environmental laws is causing tension between the states and the federal government.
