AGA notes that considerable background material is already available on this issue including the State of the Environment Report and other processes being developed through the NEPC. It is important that reporting by the Inquiry take account of existing material.

2. Identify and evaluate management options for each of the identified pollutants,

including options which address one or more pollutants together, which will lead to

improved urban air quality in the medium (5-10 years) and longer (10-15 years) term.

It is widely recognized that use of gaseous transport fuels ¾ liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and

natural gas for vehicles (NGVs) ¾ can assist in improving urban air quality. In response to the Federal Government's development of a national Sustainable Energy Policy for Australia, the AGA, the Australian Liquefied Petroleum Gas Association and the Australasian Natural Gas Vehicles Council released a report in January 1997 titled Gaseous Transport Fuels Policy Development (copy attached).
