I thought I just did that, Senator. I will read page 15 of the document I have tabled. The government will also develop:
… a new Energy Efficiency Mechanism in 2010 with input from a new Prime Minister’s Task Group on Energy Efficiency.
The Government will establish a new Prime Minister’s Task Group on Energy Efficiency.
The Task Group will report to the Government by mid-2010 on options for introducing a new Energy Efficiency Mechanism.
The Task Group will consider and advise on the most economically and environmentally effective Energy Efficiency Mechanisms that could be considered by the Federal Government to complement the CPRS and the RET.
