Thank you, Senator Singh: for the first time a question from the opposition that actually asks a question about the policy, so that's refreshing, but you are of course one of the more intelligent Labor senators. That's why they keep you on the backbench, Senator Singh, I'm sorry to say. That's why they tried to kick you out and they put you on the backbench, because you wouldn't be able to compete with some of the intellectual giants on the frontbench, poor Senator Singh.

I said something to Senator Di Natale about this. The estimate of the increase in the mix of renewables is up to 36 per cent by 2030. That is the relevant figure.
