My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer the Prime Minister to a briefing provided by the government to the Daily Telegraph last November which indicated that the government’s emissions trading scheme will increase Australian families’ bills by $1,100 a year—$1,100 a year, a great big tax on Australian families. I ask the Prime Minister: will he confirm this figure? I ask the Prime Minister to release in full the government’s modelling of the impact of his great big new tax on Australian families.
