My question is to the Minister for Climate Change and Energy. Australian businesses are facing collapse due to skyrocketing gas prices. A Riverina business called Causmag, in the town of Young, not far from here, has seen its gas bill skyrocket from around $60,000 per month to more than $170,000 per month. After six months in office, why has this government refused to take appropriate steps to pump more gas into the market to reduce prices?
