TRANSCRIPT – ABC Perth Drive with Gary Adshead

GARY ADSHEAD:

The Shadow Environment Minister, the, of course, opposition spokesperson on the environment and youth, for that matter, Angie Bell, also a member of the Queensland LNP, is in Perth to discuss with those interest groups around the federal government’s planned environmental protection laws and what they will look like come the end of the year when it’s understood Murray Watt, the Federal Environment Minister, will introduce the new laws into the federal parliament. Angie Bell joins us now. Thanks very much for your time.

ANGIE BELL:

Great to be with you, Gary, and your listeners this afternoon.

GARY ADSHEAD:

Sorry about the weather. You would have thought there’d be a bit of sun above your head, but there’s none today, I’m afraid. So, well, I just have to suck it up. Of course, the weather, the rain, we’re grateful for it. Angie, just looking at it, are you and Murray Watt, the Federal Minister, that far apart in terms of what the Federal Government around these environmental laws?

TRANSCRIPT – ABC Capricornia Breakfast with Jeremy Jones

JEREMY JONES:
Changing tack now and there’s an overhaul coming to Australia’s environmental laws. The current ones just aren’t reflecting the demands of the growing population. So, what could be the impact on central Queensland? Seeing as the state government has just released its energy plan extending the life of the Callide Power Station and supporting coal production, Shadow Minister for the Environment Angie Bell has been part of the negotiations with her Labor counterpart, Murray Watt, and the Shadow Minister is in Central Queensland for the next couple of days. Thanks for your time this morning. What changes are coming in the overhaul of the environmental laws?

ANGIE BELL:
Great to be with you, Jeremy, and your listeners here in Central Queensland. I’m here today in Rockhampton with Michelle Landry and we’re meeting with some stakeholders around Environmental Protection and Biodiversity Conservation (EPBC) Act reforms, which you just outlined.

Staying with federal politics and the government is in the thick of a fresh attempt to build consensus on a long-awaited overhaul of Australia’s environmental laws.

Joining me now is Angie Bell, the Shadow Minister for the Environment. Angie Bell, welcome back to Radio National Breakfast.

ANGIE BELL:
Good morning to you and your listeners, Sally.

SALLY SARA:
You’ve been meeting with the Minister, Senator Murray Watt, about the government’s plans to rewrite Australia’s environmental laws. Are you close to locking in a deal?

TRANSCRIPT – ABC Radio Gold Coast Drive with Bern Young

BERN YOUNG:

Well, a lot of conversation today around climate policy here in Queensland. Or is that energy policy? Well, really, that’s what it is. We’ve seen the state government’s energy roadmap released. I have with me federal opposition environment spokesperson. So not state, but I’m very interested to know where Angie Bell views the state moves today. Member for Moncrieff, of course, and me here in the studio. Hello to you, Angie.

ANGIE BELL:

My favourite part of the week to come and see you, Bern.

BERN YOUNG:

Usually I play a dance song, but anyway, a Powderfinger will do for this afternoon.

PAUL MURRAY:
Two people who are in Canberra just to help and will agree on everything. I have no doubt. Stephen Conroy, in the Labor corner. Angie Bell is the Shadow Environment Minister as well. Look at that. They’re in completely separate parts of the same studio. Oh no, I broke the fourth wall. I broke the fourth wall. All right, lovely to see you both. Okay.
