My question is to the Prime Minister. Yesterday the Prime Minister said that coal-fired power will be around forever. But Snowy Hydro has said that new coal doesn't stack up and it would mean that Snowy 2.0 is not viable. Isn't it the case that the government's plan to prop up coal-fired power with taxpayer funds will affect the viability of Snowy 2.0?
