| NSW Energy Minister, Matt Kean, who wants Australia's Federal Government to stop pitting ideology and populism against science. |
In his first major public outing since his appointment in March, NSW energy minister Matt Kean told the CEDA hosted event that the NSW Government will continue to push its Federal counterparts to take measures to support new renewable energy projects and to put in place the policies needed to reduce emissions.
In calling for a new approach to climate policy, Kean criticised both sides of Government, including those within the ranks of his own Liberal party, for their part in making climate policy such a contested space.
