Flood victims would be able to sue coal and gas companies for the recent flooding catastrophe under a new Greens Party proposal.
Greens Leader Adam Bandt visited the Northern Rivers today – announcing a plan to introduce legislation which would allow victims, councils and governments to sue coal and gas corporations for any natural disaster from mid-2019 onwards.. deemed ‘climate fuelled’.
Bandt was joined by Greens Candidate for Richmond, Mandy Nolan, who is hoping to swing the vote in her favour at the upcoming federal election.
