This paper provides a description and analysis of the Australian proposals and also offers a critique of the legislation from a Canadian perspective. The paper examines the proposed disposition regime, regulatory issues including approval of site plans and site closure, and liability issues. The paper also considers the way in which the draft proposes to deal with possible conflicts between CCS interests and petroleum exploration and production interests.engDraft Australian Legislation on Carbon Capture and Storage: A Canadian PerspectiveNewsletter10.11575/PRISM/34374
