Madam Speaker, as it is my first opportunity to address you, I want to congratulate you on your election to the role of the Speaker. I know that you will serve this parliament well.

My question is to the Minister for Climate Change and Energy Efficiency and Minister for Industry and Innovation. Minister, the carbon price has now been in place for more than three months. What are the facts about its impact so far on the Australian economy, and, when it comes to tackling dangerous climate change, why is it important that we rely on facts and not fear?
