Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. Does the minister then disagree with the statement made today by the Tasmanian Labor Premier, David Bartlett, in relation to the proposed ETS, that ‘Penny Wong and Kevin Rudd have got it wrong’? Can the minister confirm that Mr Bartlett has also written to the Prime Minister not once but twice expressing these concerns about the effects of the proposed emissions trading scheme on Tasmanian industry and Tasmanian jobs? I can table the Hansard and the transcript if necessary. Does this make the Labor Premier, Mr Bartlett, a climate change sceptic too?
