My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Finance. A few moments ago in the Senate, when the finance minister was asked whether the Treasurer was correct when he said, 'There is no such thing as new, cheap energy with a coal-fired power station,' the Minister for Finance replied: 'The Treasurer was correct at that time.' If even the finance minister won't stand by the Treasurer, how can the Treasurer retain any credibility?
