Our latest projections are that we will achieve our targets. We will do it in a way which was never offered under them, because their only approach was higher electricity prices. We are doing this by reducing the cost of living on Australian families and reducing emissions. They increased the cost of living and they failed in any significant way to reduce emissions.

I am, of course, not allowed to show props, but, between now and election day, every time I come to this dispatch box I will come and lay on the table the report Shorten did not want you to see: the ALP's $600 billion carbon bill. Every day I come to this dispatch box, that will permeate. We are reducing emissions without a carbon tax. The facts are they are the lowest carbon emissions since 2004, electricity prices are lower under us and we are reducing emissions. Under them, electricity prices are up and emissions are up.
