My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer the Prime Minister to the $2.5 billion tax grab from gas field condensate announced in the budget. What consultation did the government undertake with business prior to this decision? Can the Prime Minister guarantee that this additional $2.5 billion tax will not drive up the price of domestic gas for households and businesses in Western Australia?
