I do have those numbers here somewhere in my folder! I can tell you the consequence of the Commonwealth rebates and what prices would have been. For example, in Victoria, the year-on-year change for an average standing offer was a 23 per cent reduction. Had the rebates not been in place, it would have been down six per cent. In Western Australia, the consequence of the relief that was put in place by the Australian government saw an estimated 13 per cent reduction, but, had the bill relief not been in place, it would have been a two per cent increase. In Tasmania, there was a 14 per cent reduction as a consequence of our measures. Had those measures not been in place, the reduction would have been only three per cent. (Time expired)
