You can say 'precious' if you like, Minister. For anything to have an impact, colleagues, you actually have to care whence it is delivered, and, unfortunately for the minister, I do not particularly.

In terms of the compensation that we have been discussing, there is no continuation down the track, obviously, of the lump sum payment. I take into account that payments will increase 1.7 per cent with the CPI increase as we go along the track, but could the minister explain for the chamber how compensation will work, how it will be determined and how it will be delivered once we have a fluctuating price under an emissions trading scheme in 2015?
