Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I thank the minister for another excruciating performance in relation to this issue. The only initiative she cited was the renewable energy target, which the minister will not legislate for until next year. So I ask the minister: what initiatives has the government put in place in its 109 days in government that actually contribute to this target? Will the minister acknowledge that in fact it was the previous government that put Australia on track to meet the Kyoto targets?
