So that modelling will be released. Of course it will be released. I've already said it would be. And it'll be there to demonstrate.

But what I do know is that we won't see any modelling on the Labor Party policy because there isn't a policy. There isn't any modelling, just like there was no modelling on their 45 per cent emissions reduction target, and they couldn't tell anyone what it cost because there was nothing in it. They have a target without a plan. They have a target without a cost. They have a blank cheque that they want to put into law, and force it on Australians and mandate them to do things. That's what laws are supposed to do. That's not our plan.

We're going to back Australians to achieve this goal, this target. We know they want to achieve it. We know they're already taking actions in their own lives, in their own households, in their own businesses, in their own industries. They're moving forward and we're going to back them to do it. The Labor Party thinks you have to make a law to force them to do it. That's not our approach. That's their taxes approach.
