My question is to the Prime Minister. Before the election the Prime Minister promised that if he was elected, power prices would drop by $275. Last night the Prime Minister's budget said that power prices would rise by more than 50 per cent. Given the Prime Minister often references his Bachelor of Economics degree, can he advise the House how it is possible to have prices rise by more than 50 per cent, but fall by $275 at the same time?
