Mr President, I have several supplementary questions. Firstly, why couldn’t you answer this question yesterday, Senator Carr? Secondly, did you not understand that I was actually praising Martin Ferguson? Thirdly, if this is a dorothy dixer, why didn’t you get a proper brief on it? And fourthly, have you received representations from any trade unions concerning a poorly designed and rushed emissions trading scheme which could cost Australian workers their jobs?
