We have a national renewable energy target which will be a challenge to meet as it stands, but we will meet it. But we have, at the same time, state Labor governments with extraordinary renewables targets—50 per cent in Queensland—by 2030. Do you know how many renewables there are now, Mr Speaker? Four per cent. How are they going to get there? They want to get to 50 per cent by 2030. It is a recipe for unaffordable, unreliable electricity. Labor stand in the way of jobs.
