Carbon Pricing

My question is to the Prime Minister. I remind the Prime Minister of the comments by the head of Australia's largest power generator, Macquarie Generation, that electricity prices will climb higher and faster than the government claims, because of her carbon tax. With electricity prices set to rise at up to double the rate the government claims, how will the government's so-called compensation be adequate to offset this additional hit on families' costs of living?
