Mr President, a point of order on relevance: sessional orders require that the minister be directly relevant to the question asked. The question related to whether the minister could name any other nation that had introduced a carbon tax after its Prime Minister and every one of the governing party's members had gone to an election promising not to do so. Nothing in the minister's answer relates to the question which was asked.
