My question is to the Prime Minister. Has the Prime Minister read the editorial in today’s Australian newspaper which backs Labor’s plan to establish a gas to liquids fuels industry in Australia as a means of reducing our dependence on Middle Eastern oil? Will the Prime Minister now support Labor’s amendment to the petroleum retail bill and immediately conduct a feasibility study into a gas to liquids fuel plant in Australia, delivering greater energy independence and long-term relief from high fuel prices?
