Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. Does the minister recall saying at Senate estimates in February that carbon trading was part of the answer to reducing emissions? When does the minister plan to start showing some leadership by backing up these grand claims about leading the world on climate change with action? If he supports carbon trading, when will the minister take action on greenhouse emissions and provide business with a long-term incentive to cut carbon pollution?
