I refer the Prime Minister to the fact that HM Gem Engines, a 50-year-old business based in Dandenong, is facing an increased electricity bill of $150,000 a year because of the carbon tax and to the statement by the owner, Bruce Parker, 'To introduce a carbon tax at a time like this is an absolute disgrace.' Why won't the Prime Minister apologise to Mr Parker for promising, 'There will be no carbon tax under a government I lead'?
