To continue the conversation about the national capital plan, how are we going to make it green? How is the Government going to respond to the climate advisory committee's damning criticism of our national mitigation plan? We are not doing anything, it seems. The latest Environmental Protection Agency, EPA, figures show our emissions rising across all sectors, particularly in transport. The plan within the national planning framework is all about inter-urban motorways. There are no public transport projects listed other than the metro. There is nothing else planned. What is the Minister going to do to change that?
