My question is to the Prime Minister. Will the government call together manufacturers, consumers, gas producers and electricity companies to manage the energy cost crisis. Business owners in Goldstein and elsewhere are already saying they may have to close due to energy costs, and that is before Treasury's forecast increase of 40 to 50 per cent. Prime minister, will the government intervene to bring gas prices back to a sustainable level for domestic consumers and small and large businesses before businesses begin to collapse?
