Peter Dutton (Dickson, Liberal Party, Shadow Minister for Finance, Competition Policy and Deregulation) Share this | Hansard source

My question is to the Assistant Treasurer and Minister for Competition Policy and Consumer Affairs. Minister, what was the process used to draft the Fuelwatch legislation? Can the minister explain why two bureaucrats were locked in a room overnight to draft the legislation instead of the government drafter, the Office of Parliamentary Counsel, being used? Minister, doesn’t this just prove that the Fuelwatch initiative is just policy on the run and the government has no plan to reduce petrol prices?
