My question is to the Minister for Climate Change and Energy. Minister, you've written to the ACCC and the AER about retailer conduct on fixed charges. From today, households are promised three hours of so-called free power from 11 am to 2 pm, when most Fowler families are at work and, outside that window, still paying fixed charges and full price. Can the minister guarantee that this isn't a 'give with one hand and take with the other' scheme and that no household energy bill will go up?
