Editor's note

A loan from the Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility to the controversial Adani mine could still go ahead, even with Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk’s announcement that she will veto it.

It’s a little technical but as Brendan Gogarty explains, while in caretaker mode the Palaszczuk government can’t block the loan without the support of the state opposition.
