My question is addressed to the Treasurer. I refer the Treasurer to his claim that the government’s discredited Fuelwatch stunt will save motorists $10 on a tank of petrol. Will the Treasurer inform the House where he got this figure from?

I welcome the question because Fuelwatch is a very important means by which we can empower consumers to get a better deal at the petrol bowser, as indeed they have been getting in Western Australia for a long time. As I understand it, today in metropolitan Sydney the difference between the minimum and maximum rate being charged at the bowser is something like 27c a litre, so you can easily save $10 a tank.
