My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer the Prime Minister to the statement by the minister for small business this morning on Radio 2UE: ‘Governments can have a bit of an influence on restraining price rises.’ Given that in the last 12 months electricity has increased in price by 18 per cent, will the Prime Minister guarantee that the cost of electricity will not go up further as a result of his great big new tax on mining?
