I am glad that Senator Macdonald thinks it is a fantasy. It is certainly what people think may occur in terms of the member for that particular seat, Wilson Tuckey, and the future preselection to the lower house—but we will see in the course of events what does happen in relation to that. But that is the kind of idiocy that we are getting in climate policy across Australia and the lack of consistency and the lack of actual real concern about sustainability and commitment to it. That is why setting up a sustainable energy commission would be a very good idea, and I commend Senator Allison on this initiative. The Greens will be supporting it.
