Thank you. These trucks are going to be exempt, aren't they? For what? For two years. Okay, but it is coming at you like a tsunami. Where is Tony Sheldon on this one? Where is Tony Sheldon, your boss, on all these things? He is nowhere to be seen. It is—what do they call it?—a death tax. Road users get a carbon tax. How ridiculous. They are already paying an excise, and so are mums and dads, but you did not rule that out. Senator Conroy did not rule that out in his answers, did he? And look out for the farmers: you are coming after them as well.
