My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer the Prime Minister to the final report of Deloitte Access Economics that shows that her carbon tax will make Victorian households $1,050 a year worse off, cost 35,000 jobs and hit the state budget bottom line by $660 million by 2015. At a time when Australian households are feeling the real cost-of-living pressure, why is the Prime Minister determined to make a bad situation worse by hitting Australians with another new tax?
