ADELAIDE, May 19 (Reuters) - Australian Energy Producers (AEP) Chair Cecile Wake said on Tuesday that the government's gas market review falls short of its objective to boost supply. "We must avoid the 'false choice' between a well-supplied domestic gas market and a strong (liquefied natural gas) industry," Wake said at the AEP conference in Adelaide. The review, first announced in December, led to a decision this month requiring energy exporters to reserve 20% of their natural gas for Australia's east coast domestic markets.
