The government and I do not change the carbon price. Treasury’s forecasts of the carbon price changed. I just wanted to make sure that was clear. I refer the senator to the MYEFO where the explanation of the parameter change was set out. If the senator does not have a copy, I can provide him with one. That parameter change—assumption is not quite the word to use in these circumstances—was clearly spelt out. I will come back to you, Senator Nash.
