I thank the honourable member for the question. I'm a little surprised he didn't reference today's CPI figures. But perhaps I shouldn't be, because it shows energy prices are down 6.2 per cent on the year.

Perhaps that's an explanation. Or perhaps another explanation is that is in no small part due to the government's energy bill relief, which the honourable member opposed. That's another possible explanation for why he missed that fact, although he did reference $1,300, which is roughly the amount you can save by installing a cheaper home battery, under the Albanese government's policy. So I thank the honourable member for the plug.
