Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I note the minister seems totally unaware of estimates that emissions trading could generate up to $20 billion in additional revenue for the new government. Even by the minister’s standards, the lack of detail there was very poor. But will the minister provide a guarantee that no individual consumer will be worse off under such an emissions trading regime?
