Claim: Zali Steggall's climate change bill required emissions targets to be set by an unelected commission, which could override elected officials.
Fact-check: Near net zero truth in Wilson's climate bill claim
Verdict: mostly false: mps would have set the target by voting for the bill. the minister's decision could only be vetoed if trying to bring the target forward - a measure removed before the bill was tabled in parliament.
