Coming back to the present day, this bill seeks to expand the scope of regulation-making powers, and it does this by amending section 43F of the Gas Act. This section sets out the scope of regulation-making powers, and the proposed changes will enable gas governance arrangements to be made that provide for a broad regime for sharing information, which will have a significant impact and which may contribute to the risk of critical gas shortages. The bill also clarifies that the existing policy intent, that regulations made under section 43F for arrangements relating to outages and other security of supply contingencies apply across all industry participants and consumers. This expanded ability to make regulations to enable governance arrangements that provide for the broad disclosure is important when you consider the context. That is, as a country, we're currently experiencing a drier than average hydrological condition, so it's very important that necessary information can be easily disclosed and communicated in a timely way, so that people have the ability to plan ahead accordingly. In addition to that, the official statistics on gas supply show that we have about 11 years of gas supply remaining, which hasn't changed much for the past two decades, and that's with further exploration continuing with existing permits. That's why it's crucial that we continue to explore and invest in alternative forms of renewable energy.
