My points go to the issue of economic management. Economic management is at the core of the claims made by those opposite. When it comes to the issue of pricing carbon, we have seen from David Cameron, the Conservative leader in the United Kingdom, that we have got it right. We have got it right on this important economic issue. When it comes to the claims made by the opposition in respect of the Future Fund, this morning and in the parliament, they are simply wrong. They fail to understand the architecture of the fund, the independence of those who manage that fund and the need for the fund to make decisions to reduce risk on behalf of the people of Australia, whose funds are invested in the scheme.
