My question is to the Prime Minister. I remind the Prime Minister that 60 jobs were axed last month at Penrice Soda, with the company telling the ASX that the losses were due to increasing energy and labour costs, increasing taxes—notably the carbon tax—and increasing regulatory compliance costs. Will the Prime Minister apologise to the families of the 60 workers sacked at Penrice Soda for breaking her promise not to introduce a carbon tax?
