Secondly, Mr Speaker, the Treasurer has suggested that somehow in my question today I misled the parliament. My question raised two issues. One was a quote from him. The paragraph two up from him supporting emissions trading in that speech stated:

Price signals in an efficient open market will promote new and more efficient investment, give incentives for further exploration and promote more efficient extraction and use of key resources. As prices rise the incentive to improve the efficiency with which we use scarce resources becomes stronger. And alternative fuels become more commercial.

I could not have described emissions trading better myself.
