Thank you, Mr Speaker. Let me be very clear. Our government will meet and beat our Kyoto targets on emissions reductions, and we will meet and beat our Paris targets. We will go 411 million tonnes higher than our Kyoto targets. The Leader of the Opposition can't even formulate a policy on what the emissions target for 2030, which he seeks to lecture us about, should be. We will do that without putting a tax on people, we will do that without putting people's electricity prices up and we will do that without wiping out people's jobs, particularly the jobs of those in regional Australia who depend on them for their livelihood.
