What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Two MLAs, Dheran Young and Manuel Brown, have personally stated their opposition to fracking operations in the Northern Territory. This personal view contrasts with the official position of the leader of the Territory Labor party, Selena Uibo. While the leader stated the party supported a 'strictly regulated' industry, the two MLAs confirmed they personally oppose the gas extraction technique.
