My question is for the Minister for Climate Change and Energy. I refer to his answer earlier this week on RGS, a manufacturer in my electorate that uses over 200 megawatt hours per year, which is facing an increase of around $43,000 in power bills. The default market offer, to which the minister referred in his answer, is only available to small businesses that consume less than 100 megawatt hours. So the minister did not answer my question. So I ask again: why are there such steep electricity prices facing this and many other businesses, and what is the government doing about it?
