My question is to the Minister for the Environment. Can the minister confirm that only a few weeks ago the government promised $2 billion for the Emissions Reduction Fund over 10 years, but that last night's budget stretched the same amount of money over 15 years and included only $189 million over the forward estimates? Doesn't this just confirm that this government's budget con job has already fallen apart?
