Tasmania regulation
These Regulations set how Tasmania's greenhouse gas emissions are measured for the Climate Change (State Action) Act 2008: by summing carbon‑dioxide‑equivalent emissions and removals across specified sectors using the most recent Greenhouse Gas Inventory. They require the Minister to publish Tasmania's annual emissions in the Gazette (and by other means the Minister considers appropriate) within 60 days of each Inventory. Administrative duties fall to the Minister and the Department; the Regulations do not create new emission-control obligations for private parties.
