Environmental law reform has been sitting in the too-hard basket for years — under successive governments, the system stayed broken.
Now, just days before the end of the parliamentary year, Labor has passed the first major changes in a generation.

Meanwhile, the Coalition fractured over the details — dealing themselves out of negotiations and out of relevance.
Today, press gallery veteran Paul Bongiorno, on how Labor landed a landmark deal, and what it means for the future of environmental policy.
