My question is to the Minister for the Environment and Energy. In his presentation to the coalition joint party room, the energy minister confirmed 'a clean energy target lowers prices'. Given the energy minister told the government's own party room that it would lead to lower power prices, why is the government caving in to the demands of the former Prime Minister, the member for Warringah, by abandoning the clean energy target, which would save Australians money on their power bills?
