Submission into Laminaria-Corallina Decommissioning Levy

Publish What You Pay (PWYP) Australia supports the introduction of a levy paid by eligible oil and gas companies to cover the financial costs borne by the government of decommissioning and remediating the Laminaria and Corallina oilfields and associated infrastructure.

Our submission focuses on improving the transparency and reporting requirements around the scheme and the need for greater transparency of Australia’s governance of oil, gas and mining revenue flows to reduce corruption risks and ensure workers and communities are not left behind in the energy transition.
