‘Not worth the money at all’: Bowen slammed over request to put COP delegates in luxury hotels

​Shadow Energy Minister Dan Tehan says Energy Minister Chris Bowen’s request for up to $4.2 million in taxpayer money to book luxury accommodation in Fiji for his COP delegates is “not worth the money at all”.

​“What we can’t understand is why Chris Bowen isn’t focusing on the 244,000 Australians who are now in energy hardship,” Mr Tehan told Sky News host Andrew Bolt.

​“What is this pre-COP meeting going to achieve for them?

​“Is it going to help them with affordable energy? No.”
