What has the government said on climate change?
When the crisis escalated in New South Wales (NSW) last month, Mr Morrison refused to be drawn on questions about 
climate change - saying his "only thoughts" were with people affected by the fires.

Deputy PM Michael McCormack rejected such questions as the concerns of "raving inner-city lefties", adding: "We've had 
fires in Australia since time began."

More recently, Mr Morrison has acknowledged climate change as one of "many other factors" in fuelling the bushfires.
