August 10, 2018. Raw footage: Victorian Energy Minister Lily D’Ambrosio, in Sydney, fields questions after a compromise was reached on the National Energy Guarantee (NEG) at the COAG Energy Council meeting. Miss D’Ambrosio says Victoria needs to see legislation pass through the coalition party room before making a decision on the NEG. "This is very much in the hands of the federal government," Ms D’Ambrosio says. Ms D’Ambrosio says the NEG needs "more work" before meeting again at the end of September. Ms D’Ambrosio says the government's reduction target of 26 per cent is "too low" and would like to see debate around the figure play out at a federal level. Miss D’Ambrosio says any agreement around the NEG should be flexible enough to accommodate changes to any reduction target. (AAP Video/Carol Cho)
