My question is to the Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy, Senator Conroy. Just prior to 'Swindler Sunday', is the minister aware that this week Australia Post imposed a one per cent fuel surcharge on non-declared services? Minister, does this include or exclude the effect of the carbon tax? If it includes the carbon tax, do you believe that not sending or receiving parcels is good for the climate? If it does not include the carbon tax, are you going to change it after 'Swindler Sunday'?
