I note the minister’s diligent research in relation to this matter and the position of government policy since 2007. Of course, I note she has just reaffirmed that it has in fact been government policy to tackle climate change using emissions trading since before the 2007 election. I note there was no requirement for action on climate change to wait until the Copenhagen conference. Given that this is the case, when can we expect to see action on climate change and emissions trading implemented. Finally, can the minister advise the Senate of whether there are any threats to action on climate change?
