‘Full abuse of taxpayer money’: gigantic price of the controversial work climate change report
The controversial Pricetag of the controversial evaluation of the climate risk of eight figures makes it a “complete abuse of taxpayers’ money,” according to the senator of the nationals, Matt Canavan.Matt Hampson Digital reporter
September 16, 2025 – 7:50 pmThe price of the National Evaluation of Climate Risk of Labor has been called a “complete abuse of taxpayers’ money”, since the Daily Telegraph reveals that the Australian public has designated just below $ 23 million for the controversial document.
…
Senator Matt Canavan told SkyNews.com.au The cost of the report shows that it is a “abuse of taxpayers’ money.”
“This report is a complete waste because Even the authors say they cannot use it to determine our issuance goals, ”said Canavan Tuesday.
“The government has spent millions of dollars from taxpayers in a fear campaign aimed at justifying the decisions they have already made. It is a complete abuse of taxpayers’ money.”
The research partner of the Institute of Public Affairs, Saxon Davidson, joined the conviction of the strong figure spent in the forecast.
“The cost of this flagrant piece of net propaganda is a shame.” Davidson told SkyNews.com.au on Tuesday.
…
The report cost $ 22.9 million for 284 pages, or just over $ 80,600 / page. Good job if you can get it.
As we point out in our previous article on this report, the Australian government is not even following its own climatic advice, which shows how little people who commissioned the report value its content. They approved the expansion of an important fossil fuel project a few days before the report was published.
This responsibility discharge clause, Senator Matt Canavan mentioned: As Mike pointed out in our previous article on this report, the authors of the report do not guarantee in any way the content of the report, nor do they recommend that it be used as a policy base.
Discharge of responsibility
The Australian government that acts through the Australian climate service, an association between the Meteorology Office, CSIRO, Australian Statistical Office and Australia Geoscience, has exercised due care and ability to prepare and compile information and data in this publication. However, the Australian climate service, its partners, employees and advisors renounce all responsibility, including the responsibility for negligence and for any loss, damage, injury, expense or cost incurred by any person as a result of accessing, using or depending on any of the information or data in this publication at the maximum point allowed by law.

In other words, if someone is silly enough to continue the council given in the report, and follow the council exploits their business or the Australian economy, the authors of the report do not assume responsibility or responsibility.
In the business world, this type of responsibility in such a expensive report would be completely unacceptable. The last time I received an expensive report was a cybersecurity report that cost around $ 8000 / page, a tenth of the cost of this climate report. Much of those $ 8000 were spent on insurance for the authors, professional compensation against the possibility that the Council in the report would be wrong or that had lost something important. This expensive cybersecurity report did not contain a discharge of responsibility against the use of the councils in the report, it was an honest advice on what should be done to improve the software.
Climate scientists and government offices do not have enough confidence to expose any personal or institutional risk that arises from the climate advice they provide? Why would anyone take a report with such a discharge of responsibility?
