In relation to the first part of the question, this is the difficulty when you have questions written ahead of time and you do not listen to the answer. I have addressed the question in relation to the starting price issue. I would again make the point that what the Treasury modelling does show very clearly is that we can continue to grow the economy, we can continue to increase jobs and we can continue to increase our incomes with a carbon price. That is the reason why senators opposite used to support a price on carbon.
