Lock the Gate Alliance and Comms Declare have lodged a complaint with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) asking them to investigate whether representations made by the Australian Petroleum Production and Exploration Association in relation to its ‘future of gas campaign’ breach ss 18 and 29 of the Australian Consumer Law.
