According to the opposition leader Bill Shorten, Adani would receive no compensation and find it difficult to prevent a Labor government’s decision to cancel its mining licence.

Former Australian Conservation Council President Geoff Cousins told the ABC Mr Shorten agreed to revoke the licence provided there is sufficient evidence.
