Deputy leader of the Nationals Party, David Littleproud, says the nationals are willing to negotiate their stance on their climate change policy - but only if, "regional Australians would need to get a better deal".
Keith Pitt, Minister for Resources, Water, and Northern Australia, said talks with the government were ongoing however, any final commitments have not been made.
There is international pressure after criticisms from the United Nations earlier this week for Australia to improve their climate policies before the COP26 Climate Summit meeting in Glasgow this November.
