Albanese Government Strengthens Climate Change Authority with Strategic Appointments

Albanese Government Strengthens Climate Change Authority with Strategic Appointments

TweetPostShareWhatsapp

In a significant move to reinvigorate Australia’s approach to climate policy, the Albanese Government announced on 16 March 2024, the appointment of two prominent figures, Fiona Simson and Richard Bolt, as members of the Climate Change Authority (CCA), alongside the reappointment of the existing Chief Executive Officer, Brad Archer.

This decision underscores the government’s dedication to robust climate policy development, following the landmark Climate Change Act 2022, which marked a new era of action after years of stagnation.

Fiona Simson, celebrated for her pioneering role in the agricultural sector and her recent tenure as the Chair and first female president of the National Farmers’ Federation, brings invaluable insight into rural and regional development. Her commitment to advocating for farmers and rural communities not only on a national scale but also internationally, is expected to enrich the CCA’s perspectives on climate policy. Simson’s election to the board of the World Farmers’ Organisation, where she represents Australia and New Zealand, exemplifies her influential stance in global agricultural discussions.

Richard Bolt, appointed as Chair of Hydro Tasmania, contributes extensive experience in climate and energy policy reform. With a notable career spanning various secretarial roles in Victorian Government departments, Bolt’s expertise in driving technological innovation across the energy, resources, and agriculture sectors is set to play a crucial role in guiding the CCA’s future initiatives.

Both Simson and Bolt commenced their five-year terms on 15 March 2024, poised to offer fresh perspectives and strategies to tackle Australia’s climate challenges.

The continuity of the CCA’s leadership is ensured through the extension of Brad Archer’s tenure as CEO for an additional 12 months. Archer, who first joined the CCA in 2019, has been instrumental in steering the Authority’s efforts towards impactful climate change advocacy and policy development.

Minister for Climate Change and Energy, Chris Bowen, lauded the new appointments, stating, “The CCA provides independent advice that’s critical for developing Australia’s climate policy, and both Fiona and Richard have a wealth of experience and perspectives to contribute to that.” He further emphasized the importance of the CCA’s input in shaping Australia’s annual climate change statement and sectoral plans, aiming to set ambitious and feasible targets for 2035 that harness economic opportunities for the nation.

With the integration of Simson and Bolt’s extensive backgrounds in agriculture and energy policy reform, coupled with Archer’s continued leadership, the CCA is uniquely positioned to influence Australia’s trajectory towards a sustainable and prosperous future in the face of climate change.
