My question is addressed to the Treasurer. I refer the Treasurer to the recent paper by Professor Sinclair Davidson of RMIT which demonstrates major flaws in the methodology used by the ACCC in its analysis of Fuelwatch. Given the mounting expert evidence that Fuelwatch is likely to increase petrol prices, will the Treasurer release the complete ACCC model to the public for peer review and ask his own department to check that ACCC analysis and make the results of that Treasury appraisal public also?
