Southern Metropolitan Region

David DAVIS (Southern Metropolitan) (14:02): (1127) My constituency question today is for the Minister for Energy and Resources, and it concerns the government’s Gas Substitution Roadmap. I ask the minister to explain to the community whether this applies to towers and heights and new developments within the government’s proposed 10 zones, three of which are in my electorate. So does the Gas Substitution Roadmap apply to the Moorabbin, Chadstone and Camberwell zones where the government is doing high-density, high-rise development without council or community input or approval? Will those three zones restrict the choice of gas connections as the government goes forward under its Gas Substitution Roadmap?
