Abigail Boyd GRN

“Before the debate on the Energy Legislation Amendment (Clean Energy Future) Bill 2024 was interrupted earlier, I believe I was talking about the importance of well-designed and structured community benefits schemes to ensure that we bring the community on board with us in a really tangible and visible way.”

Energy Legislation Amendment (Clean Energy Future) Bill 2024

Mr JIHAD DIB, Minister for Customer Service and Digital Government — 2024-06-05

The bill amends five pieces of legislation that relate to different parts of the energy system: the Electricity Infrastructure Investment Act 2020, which I will refer to as the EII Act. It would not be a second reading speech that I was reading if it did not have lots of acronyms. I acknowledge the member for Manly, who also loves acronyms. The bill amends the Electricity Supply Act 1995, which I will refer to as the ES Act; the Pipelines Act 1967, which I will refer to as the Pipelines Act; the Energy and Utilities Administration Act 1987, which I will refer to as the EUA Act; and the Land Acquisition (Just Terms Compensation) Act 1991, which I will refer to as the just terms Act.
