My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to the Prime Minister's previous answer and I also refer to The Australian newspaper this morning which reveals that the highest price rises for electricity over the past decade occurred in the three states with the highest reliance on coal power and the lowest reliance on renewables: New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria. How does the Prime Minister explain these massive price rises when he cannot blame renewable energy?
