Agree

Yes, but increase environmental restrictions and oversight

The Liberal National party might agree with this statement to some extent. While they support CSG projects, they also recognize the need for environmental regulations. For example, in 2014, the party introduced the 'water trigger' legislation, which requires federal environmental impact assessments for large coal mines and CSG developments that could impact water resources.
