Senator Canavan, I like to answer all parts of your questions. The Albanese government understands the pressure that is on Australian families as a result of rising electricity prices. Of course we have seen the terrible war in Ukraine and what that has done to prices right around the world. Every country in the world is facing upward pressure on electricity prices. What did we do? We capped the price of gas and we capped the price of coal in order to push the price down, and you voted against it. (Time expired)
