“To be absolutely clear, there is no suggestion whatsoever that Labor has a policy to lift that moratorium on fracking in the South East.”
Peter Malinauskas, ABC News, March 2022.

Now Labor is preparing to do exactly that.

South Australians were promised the South East fracking moratorium would remain in place, yet before the community has even been consulted, the Government is moving legislation to lift it.

The South East is one of Australia’s most important food producing regions, with farming, wine, tourism and local jobs all dependent on clean groundwater and healthy aquifers.

If Labor believes this stacks up, then it should front the community first, not announce legislation and consult later.
