Perhaps I need to say that again, because Senator Macdonald clearly is not interested in what the electricity sector has to say: investors need ‘an equitable and enduring greenhouse gas emissions price signal’ and ‘this can only be achieved through bipartisan policy agreement.’ We would welcome the opposition actually approaching this issue with a focus on what is right for the nation, a focus on sensible public policy, but regrettably they have been lacking. Regrettably all they wish to do is to run a no campaign, a fear campaign and a scare campaign on this important policy issue.
