Chris Bowen (McMahon, Australian Labor Party, Minister for Climate Change and Energy) Share this | Hansard source

I was asked if we stand by things, and we do stand by our policy to reduce energy prices by introducing the cheapest form of energy, which is renewable, and rejecting plans to introduce the most expensive form of energy. We stand by the election commitment we made in the election just gone to deliver cheaper home batteries for people, and that is a policy which is being delivered and taken up by the Australian people with great enthusiasm. The Australian people rejected those alternatives and gave this government a mandate to keep going.
