New South Wales is considering following Western Australia's lead in stockpiling diesel reserves after WA Premier Roger Cook spent $10 million to secure 4 million litres of diesel. The move has sparked debate about whether states should independently secure fuel supplies or rely on a national solution, with the federal opposition criticising the Albanese government over fuel security. WA Opposition Leader Basil Zempelis and Sunshine Coast Mayor Rosanna Natoli discuss the need for state-level action versus a coordinated national approach to safeguard diesel supplies for essential services.
