This is a new form of question time where, apparently, the minister asks me questions! Mr President, I have a further supplementary question. Can the minister confirm whether interstate truck companies, which I know Senator Sterle will be very interested in, will pay a higher price for diesel under the carbon tax by reducing the fuel excise rebate they claim? How large will a transport company need to be before they are up for a higher diesel price under the carbon tax?
