I thank the member for Longman for his question. What we have done is to put in place measures that the member for Longman voted against. He voted against $3 billion of energy price relief. The member would be aware, as well—and I got this question from another Queenslander last week—that the Queensland budget that was handed down just a week ago, in partnership with the work that we have done, will make an enormous difference. It will mean, literally, that, for many pensioners and low-income Queenslanders, their energy bills will be zero going forward.
