My question is to the minister representing both the Minister for Defence and the Minister for Veterans' Affairs and Minister for Defence Science and Personnel, Senator Bob Carr. Given that it is two years to the day since the coalition committed to the fair indexation of DFRB and DFRDB military superannuation pensions, and three days from the toxic carbon tax starting, can the minister explain how much compensation a DFRDB military superannuant receiving the average annual pension payment of $24,386 will receive for the effects of the government's toxic carbon tax, a tax which is based on a lie?
