My question is to the Prime Minister. Is it not the case that the government’s failure to increase the renewable energy target has meant that the Roaring Forties company has cancelled projects in Tasmania and South Australia worth $550 million that would have employed 200 Australians and the Vestas renewable energy assembly plant in northern Tasmania is closing, with the loss of 100 jobs? Prime Minister, is there any other country on the planet where renewable energy projects are being closed?
