I am writing as one of your constituents to urge you to support legislation introducing a 25% tax on gas export revenue.   Australia is one of the world's largest exporters of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) yet ordinary Australians are seeing almost none of the returns. Since July 2022, we have forgone an estimated $69 billion in revenue that a 25% export tax would have raised. That is $69 billion that could have funded hospitals, schools, housing, and cost-of-living relief. Instead it was handed to gas companies for free.   The scale of this imbalance is staggering. Ordinary Australians paid 24 times what the entire gas industry paid in company tax. We are subsidising one of the most profitable industries on earth.   Making matters worse, 56% of Australia's gas exports attract zero royalties. More than half of our national resource is being shipped offshore without gas companies paying Australians a cent for it. Meanwhile, Norway charges a combined tax rate of 78% on profits from its oil and gas, allowing it to build a sovereign wealth fund worth more than $3 trillion for its citizens. Australia now has nearly $1 trillion in debt.   A 25% tax on gas export revenue is modest, fair, and long overdue. It would not stop investment, it would not raise energy prices for Australians. What it would do is ensure that this finite, publicly-owned resource delivers a fair return to the Australian people.   I am asking you, as my elected representative, to support legislation to make it law.
