Tanya Plibersek had to defend the environment law negotiations her successor in the environment portfolio is carrying out today, on Daylight SAD (which must burn given she had a deal with the Greens that Albanese scraped) and again made the point that this is something the fossil fuel lobby wants passed:

The legislation as it currently exists is really problematic. It just has presided over the slow decline of our environment in Australia. And it’s been, as you say, a handbrake on the development that the country needs. Everybody agrees that the current laws are broken. If these new laws, the proposed laws don’t pass, we’re stuck with the current laws. I think the people who are at the edges of this debate, at the extremes of this debate, just have to understand that there will be compromise required from both ends to get something that is workable and acceptable to the majority. And I think it’s really significant that, that there are plenty of people on both sides of this debate who are saying let’s just get on with it.
People in the environment movement and people from the business community, including, I mean most recently the Minerals Council, saying let’s just get on with it
