Federal Resources Minister Matthew Canavan will brief the gas industry on the draft rules for the Australian Domestic Gas Security Mechanism on 9 June 2017. The draft rules show that the ADGSM will give Canavan and any future resources minister the power to restrict LNG exports if there is a domestic supply shortfall. Macquarie Group has criticised the limited detail in the draft rules, particularly with regard to how the gas price will be determined for the purposes of imposing export controls.
