Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. Can the minister, perhaps on notice, advise whether the $20 million target threshold actually applies to renewable energy credits as part of the RET scheme? Also, can the minister comment on the closure recently of wind tower and steel fabricator specialist, RPG, where 150 jobs were lost? Has any analysis been done of jobs created in manufacturing and funding for the renewable energy sector?
