Introduction: Nick Cater

The MRC commissioned one of Australia's most respected energy economists, Dr Brian Fisher AO PSM, to provide an independent assessment of the contribution gas can make to fulfilling our national energy requirements. The findings are clear: a competitive and transparent East Coast Gas Market, unburdened by unnecessary restrictions and synchronised to the global commodity market would facilitate manufacturing, increase employment and enable us to reach our environmental goals sooner.
