The parliamentary secretary clearly is not comfortable talking about petrol prices, so I will move on to a broader matter. Given that the Dawson inquiry recommended criminal sanctions for cartel operations in 2003, as I recall, and given that the government indicated in 2005 it would legislate to introduce criminal sanctions for cartel operations, some four years later can the parliamentary secretary confirm when the government intends to introduce this legislation?
