This submission is to the Senate Standing Committee on Environment and Communications inquiry into the Safeguard Mechanism (Crediting) Amendment Bill 2022. It follows EDO’s previous submissions on the changes to the Safeguard Mechanism.
EDO’s recommendations focus on restricting facilities’ use of offsets to comply with the Safeguard Mechanism, disfavouring new entrants that are advantaged by improved technologies that facilitate genuine business transformation.
