Standing Council on Energy & Resources

Standing Council on Energy & Resources (SCER)




The Council of Australian Governments’ (COAG) Standing Council on Energy and Resources (SCER) is responsible for pursuing priority issues of national significance in the energy and resources sectors and progressing the key reform elements of the former Ministerial Council on Mineral and Petroleum Resources and the Ministerial Council on Energy.


The Council will seek to ensure the safe, prudent and competitive development of the nation’s mineral and energy resources and markets to optimise long-term economic, social and environmental benefits to the community. The Council will do this by:



  • facilitating national oversight and coordination of governance, policy development and program management to address the opportunities and challenges facing Australia’s energy and resources sectors into the future;

  • providing national leadership on key strategic issues and effectively integrating these strategic priorities into Government decision-making in relation to the energy and resources sectors; and

  • enhancing national consistency between regulatory frameworks to reduce costs and improve the operation of the energy and resources sectors.
