Nuclear energy
Debate resumed on motion of Lily D’Ambrosio:
That this house:
(1) condemns the federal opposition’s plan to send energy bills sky-high with dangerous and expensive nuclear power;
(2) calls on the leader and deputy leader of the Victorian opposition to rule out nuclear reactors on the Great Ocean Road or in any Victorian community.
And James Newbury’s amendment:
That all the words after ‘That’ be omitted and replaced with the words ‘the Allan Labor government be condemned for failing to provide secure, reliable and affordable energy to Victorians.’
The SPEAKER: The Minister for Energy and Resources has moved that the motion be agreed to. The member for Brighton has moved a reasoned amendment to this motion. He has proposed to omit all of the words after ‘That’ with the view of inserting in their place the words which appear on the notice paper. The question is:
That the words proposed to be omitted stand part of the question.
Those supporting the reasoned amendment moved by the member for Brighton should vote no.
