The Australian Climate Roundtable supports passage of the Climate Change Bill 2022 and the Climate Change (Consequential Amendments) Bill 2022 (‘the Bills’), and we encourage the Senate to pass the Bills after due consideration.

We comprise national bodies representing business, environment, farmers, investors, the social welfare sector and workers. Over the years we have found strong common ground on climate change policy and we encourage the Parliament to reflect the considerable consensus in the community.

This submission expresses collective views of the Australian Climate Roundtable organisations, and is without prejudice to the individual positions and submissions of our organisations.
