Further speaking to media in Tomago on Thursday, when asked whether he supported extending the Petroleum Exploration Permit 11 (PEP 11) licence off the Hunter's coast, Mr Morrison said: "no".The Prime Minister said Resources Minister Keith Pitt would make the final decision but he was clear that he did not support extending the licence, which covers an area stretching from Port Stephens to Sydney.Advent Energy wants to extend the permit for another five years arguing that its plans to explore and potentially drill for gas represent a "potential solution to substantial gas shortage issues".Community opposition to the plan has swelled in recent weeks.During a visit to Nelson Bay on Tuesday, Labor leader Anthony Albanese shared his opposition to the PEP 11 extension, saying it is a "threat to tourism operators from Port Stephens all the way down to Sydney".
