My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer the Prime Minister to the situation of my constituent, Gabrielle Whiting, who as a single, self-funded retiree under the age of 65 earning $35,000 a year has been told by the government's clean energy hotline that she will not be entitled to any compensation under the carbon tax. In fact, according to the government's own household assistance estimator, Ms Whiting will be $251 a year worse off. Prime Minister, why are you determined to introduce a new tax that will add to the cost-of-living pressures faced by hundreds of thousands of self-funded retirees who responsibly planned for a modest retirement?
