About this episode

The Albanese government spent $7.3 million on international travel for climate bureaucrats in a failed bid to secure Australia's hosting of the COP31 climate conference. Freedom of Information documents reveal 107 bureaucrats made 156 trips to 64 events across 31 countries over eight months, sparking criticism from the Opposition and debate over taxpayer-funded diplomatic efforts. Shadow Energy Minister Dan Tehan and Energy Minister Chris Bowen have exchanged accusations over ministerial travel records.
