My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for the Environment, Senator Cormann. In relation to the renewable energy target, the government recently announced that it would not be changing the Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme for households, but the government has been deliberately vague over the overall position on the SRES. As the government knows, the SRES has two components: the household component, which is those installations less than 10 kilowatts, and the small business component, which is those installations up to 100 kilowatts in size. Is the government trying to cut out the small business component of the SRES just as this important market is starting to thrive?
