Well the locals all have or are getting ULEV and other efficient technologies. SO in actual fact if the laws and incentives came on line now they would be ready in time for when our locals are in full ULEV swing.

Its a good idea, but the problem is how do you do it without hurting the local industry?

Australia could be left behind the rest of the world on green vehicles without
significant government incentives for low emission cars.Europe, Japan and the US have government-funded consumer incentives
as high as $10,500 for super-low-emission vehicles, helping those markets to attract
the lion’s share of world electric vehicle (EV) production as it begins to ramp up.
Apart from some minor state level tax relief, no such incentives are in place in Australia.
