My question is to the Acting Prime Minister. I refer the Acting Prime Minister to the Prime Minister's assertion that petrol prices will not be touched by carbon pricing. How does he reconcile that statement with the view of the petroleum distribution and retail association ACAPMA that the carbon tax will put upward pressure on petrol prices because it will push up the cost of fuel production, distribution, retailing and service station operations?
