Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. Is the minister aware that the ACT Labor government has estimated that 60 per cent of Canberra households will be undercompensated for the carbon tax and 22 per cent will be totally uncompensated? With thousands of households facing electricity price rises of more than 17 per cent and a $640 increase in their cost of living, when will Ms Gillard admit that she went to the last election with the promise that there would be no carbon tax under a government that she led and that she has not told the truth to the Australian people?
