Mr President, on the point of order: I do not know why the Liberal Party persists with these spurious points of order. Senator Wong was directly answering the question. She provided information in response to the senator's question from the first sentence she uttered. She is providing comprehensive information about the compensation package for any increase in electricity prices driven by the introduction of a carbon price. The question has been directly answered. As I say, I do not know why the Liberal Party insists on taking spurious points of order but I would urge you to rule that there is no point of order.
