My question is for the Treasurer. On Sunday the Treasurer said about the government abandoning his National Energy Guarantee:

No-one is more disappointed than I am about that, because a lot of work went into the National Energy Guarantee.

Can he confirm that his own modelling warned that abandoning the NEG would see power bills rise by $300? Isn't it really more disappointing that Australians will pay an extra $300 on their power bills because of a government that even the Prime Minister refers to as the muppet show?
