On indulgence, I agree with what the Prime Minister has had to say. I made that clear at a press conference which I held about half an hour ago, although not in the detail that the Prime Minister has just mentioned in his response.

Prime Minister, isn’t it the case that, when the 165 countries which have ratified the Kyoto protocol meet in Nairobi this month to further the practical implementation of Kyoto between 2008 and 2012, Australia and the United States will not have a vote?
