2025 AUSTRALIAN DOMESTIC GAS OUTLOOK – SYDNEY
A Dutton-led Coalition Government will turbocharge our resources sector â and we see the future of gas as being instrumental to that.

We cherish this country because it affords opportunities like no other. But only â and I stress this point â if weâre governed well. When Australia is governed badly, dreams and ambitions become beyond reach. And thatâs whatâs happened during the last three years under the Albanese Government.
So mining pays the bills for Australia and I start all of my presentations with that because that is an incredibly important thing to know and I’m not sure that Australians do know that anymore. We certainly know the Treasurer doesn’t know that. And at the budget last year with a $50 billion surplus from windfall prices, he managed in his budget speech to not mention mining at all, much less coal, gas or iron ore. Couldn’t find anywhere to mention that in his speech. That is shocking.
Along with my colleagues, we have spent the last two years listening, engaging, and working with the resources sector. We know what your sector needs to flourish; to get Australia back on track. A Peter Dutton-led Coalition Government will deliver on that.
We know what needs to be done to deliver and sustain the next mining boom for Australia: Affordable energy; Access to gas; Reduced and streamlined approval processes; Investment certainty; Workable and flexible IR laws. We now need the keys to government. We are ready.
Strategic investment in infrastructure, skills and industries will not only strengthen Northern Australia, but also position the nation as a key driver of economic growth, diplomacy, defence and biosecurity protection throughout the whole region, ensuring that we remain competitive in the global market.
So I’m delighted to introduce a man who will fight for us, who will fight for you. He’s strong, he’s courageous, and he is our Federal National Party Leader, David Littleproud.
What would you call a broken promise? Maybe you seek to deceive, to delude, to falsify, to mislead or to con? In April 2022 then Labor opposition leader Anthony Albanese visited Cairns during the election campaign to promise $107.5 million for the Cairns Water Security Stage 1 project.
The Townsville Reef HQ Aquarium is at risk of permanent closure because of the Albanese Labor government’s failure to include $100 million in funding in its last budget last month.
There is a risk of Australia becoming a very principled but very poor country, and this is something we should avoid.
