I will just say this, Mr President: if Senator Brandis buys me a beer later, I will tell him who laughed and who did not then. I am asked essentially about the nature of the government's package. As I have previously said, that will be announced on Sunday. As the government has made clear, this is a plan to price pollution because we want to reduce it. It will be a plan that looks to the future, not to the past; it will be a plan that is based on facts and not on fear; and it will be a plan that recognises the climate science. All of those attributes are missing from the current coalition benches. All of those attributes of policy are missing from the coalition benches. (Time expired)
