Thanks, Mr President. I'm not sure there was a lot of Christmas spirit in those comments either, so I'm not sure that would be an accurate reflection, even from the chair, Mr President, if I may say. In terms of our commitment, the government has outlined detailed plans to meet our 2030 targets in relation to climate action. That's what the Climate Solutions Package takes us through, tonne by tonne. Senator Waters ought know that, ought acknowledge that and ought to stop misleading, in the sense that Australia has met and exceeded our targets to date, and our plans are about ensuring we continue to do so into the future.
