My question is to the Prime Minister. Power prices have never been higher than they are under this Liberal government, now in its fifth year. The Prime Minister used to acknowledge that the fastest way to bring down power prices was to act on gas. Is the government refusing to pull the trigger on gas export controls because there are serious legal doubts about the ministerial actions of the Deputy Prime Minister? Why are doubts about his deputy standing in the way of lower power prices for Australians today?
