I certainly accept and recognise that there are technical issues to be navigated in this area. As someone, I know, who cares very deeply about these matters, particularly from his former shadow responsibilities, I would urge the minister to argue within his cabinet for pause and thought when proposals such as pink batts come forward and that such moneys could be much better spent in areas perhaps such as this.
Question negatived.
