My question is to be Minister representing the Minister for Climate Change and Energy Efficiency, Senator Wong. Has the government given consideration to the impact of the carbon tax on the value of assets, and in particular plant and equipment, owned by those companies liable to pay the tax? Has the government made any provision in its modelling for the inevitable reduction in the capital value of those assets?
