My question is to the Prime Minister. Prime Minister, given that your four key economic departments had provided advice to the cabinet that petrol prices may rise as a result of Labor’s FuelWatch, can the Prime Minister explain why the Assistant Treasurer, in a letter to me of 16 April 2008, asserted:

There is simply no independent advice that has reached the conclusion that there is any upward pressure on petrol prices through FuelWatch.
