Warren Truss (Wide Bay, National Party, Shadow Minister for Infrastructure and Transport and Local Government) Share this | Hansard source

My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer him to a statement on FuelWatch by the Assistant Treasurer on 27 April 2008 on Sky News. He said that the government will be:

... covering the cost of the setup, and there’ll be no increased compliance costs for service stations whatsoever.

Given the Treasury has estimated that the cost to small business of FuelWatch would be $4,000 per annum, does the Prime Minister stand by his minister’s statement?
