Overview
The Emissions Reduction Assurance Committee (ERAC) sought feedback on the AWT method’s compliance with the Offset Integrity Standards as set out in the Carbon Credits (Carbon Farming Initiative) Act 2011 and associated matters including outstanding issues identified in previous reviews but not yet actioned.
This informed the Committee’s advice to the Assistant Minister for Climate Change and Energy on whether the method should be remade.
