Greens demand documents on 'dodgy' carry-over credits for Paris target

Bid to keep the spotlight on the Coalition and on Labor which is yet to decide if it will follow suit

The Greens will use the resumption of parliament for the looming budget session to try to extract documents associated with the Morrison government's decision to use carry-over credits from the Kyoto period to meet the Paris 2030 target.

The move by the Greens to extract documents relevant to the decision is an effort to keep the spotlight both on the Coalition's decision to count a 367-megatonne contribution from carry-over credits, and also on Labor, with the opposition yet to take a decision on whether it will follow suit.
