National Energy Guarantee endorsed by Coalition party room despite backbench concern

The Coalition party room has approved the Prime Minister's plan for a National Energy Guarantee.
The PM and Energy Minister argue the NEG will
be kinder to hip pockets and reduce emissions.
After a morning of debate, Liberal and National MPs have endorsed the NEG, but former prime minister Tony Abbott has expressed strong concern about it.

Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull said it meant the nation was "one step closer to cheaper and more reliable energy”.

The meeting lasted for almost two-and-a-half hours and has been described as “testy".
