Stalling tactics on RET reckless: Butler

Labor's environment spokesman says its bipartisan deal on a renewable energy target restores the industry confidence that Prime Minister Tony Abbott "recklessly" jeopardised.

"This has been a very, very sorry state of affairs for the last 12 months," Mark Butler said on Monday.

He said the prime minister's "reckless attack" on the industry had brought it to the brink of collapse and stalled development.
