Thank you, Senator Sherry—of course, superannuation. We heard those voices—some on the other side—saying this was the end of the world. Perhaps in five or 10 years time, when we have had a carbon price, when investors are pricing that into their long-term decisions, as this country moves to a cleaner energy, low-pollution economy, people might look back on Senator Bushby’s question and think really how backward looking it was.
