My question is to the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister stated earlier in question time today that the only thing that matters in climate change policy is: is it going to cut emissions? In March the Department of the Environment found that by 2020 emissions will be 20 per cent higher than they were at the time this Liberal government was elected. So, why is the Prime Minister sticking with the discredited Direct Action policy?
