| Prime Minister Scott Morrison and NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian received a briefing at the Wollondilly Emergency Control Centre on Sunday. |
In his first public comments since returning to Australia from Hawaii, Mr Morrison apologised for going on a family holiday during the bushfire emergency, as he refused to accept criticism that his government was not doing enough to tackle climate change.
“People can expect my government to do what it promised to do, what it took to the last election," Mr Morrison said on Sunday, adding: "I don’t accept the suggestion that Australia is not carrying its weight."
"We are meeting and beating our targets and there are very few countries who can say that."
