They've given up on the IR. No more talk about small businesses and IR. No more forced examples coming through. They're now back onto another falsehood. This is what Kane Thornton, the Chief Executive of the Clean Energy Council, has had to say:

… abundantly clear that Australia's clean energy transition has been throttled by years of policy uncertainty, with … the amount of quarterly commissioned capacity continuing the downward trend of the last few years and now at its lowest level on record …

Industry confidence to invest is growing, aided by clearer and more potent policy directions across the country …

Couldn't have said it more clearly. Philip Lowe, the Governor of the Reserve Bank had this to say:

When we were on a different path, people were saying, 'Are they really serious?' It was damaging us.

Richard Court, the former WA Liberal Premier:

The past decade of energy policy has been a slow-moving train wreck.
