Carbon Pricing

My question is the Prime Minister. I refer the Prime Minister to a statement of Tom Maguire of Teys meatworks—a company on the carbon tax hit list—in my electorate. Mr Maguire said:
We could close this plant for a period of time in the year … and therefore our total emissions … would … be below 25,000 (tonnes).
Will the Prime Minister advise Teys meatworks what to do: shut down for a month or pay the carbon tax bill of some $600,000?
