Senator Sarah Hanson-Young is Greens Senator for SA, Spokesperson for Environment:
“Reports that the Albanese Government have signed a secret AUKUS deal with the US are deeply concerning. The Albanese Government wants to legalise dumping nuclear waste from the US and the UK here in Australia.
“Labor need to come clean and guarantee that South Australia will not become a nuclear waste dumping ground for the US and the UK.
“South Australia has long been the target for a dangerous nuclear waste dump and Labor need to clearly rule it out before the election.
“Between Labor’s nuclear subs and Peter Dutton’s nuclear power obsession, the Greens remain the only party in South Australia fighting to protect our nuclear-free state.”
