Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. I remind the minister that on Wednesday, 19 August, at 6.06 pm, she said, ‘The modelling indicated five per cent.’ Minister, will you admit that the government has got it wrong and will you move immediately to amend the renewable energy target legislation by adding renewable energy certificates from solar hot water, heat pumps and the solar PV multiplier to the top of the target, as you were prepared to do for non-renewable fossil fuel coal seam methane? Will you admit that that is precisely what the Greens were trying to do by amendment at that time and that you rejected it?
