My question is to the Minister representing the Treasurer and the Minister for Climate Change and Energy Efficiency, Senator Wong. Given the 2012 budget shows the government expects to fall 200,000 jobs short of the target it set in the 2011 budget, how can the government be confident that employment will increase by the 1.6 million jobs by 2020 as estimated by Treasury in its 2011 carbon tax modelling?
