My question is to the Prime Minister. On 1 July Energy Australia electricity prices for the average household in New South Wales will rise by nearly 20 per cent or about $320 per year. Energy Australia has explained:

Doing nothing means higher prices and less reliable energy for all customers.

Will the Prime Minister now commit to work with Labor in the national interest to end the policy paralysis which continues to mean higher electricity prices for all Australians?
