Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. Is the minister aware of reports from the United States that the administration's definition of green jobs includes college professors teaching classes on environmental studies, clerks at bicycle repair shops, antique dealer employees, Salvation Army workers who sell used clothing, garbage disposal workers and even oil lobbyists if they are engaged in advocacy related to environmental issues? Once again I ask: will the minister advise the Senate what the government's definition of a 'green job' is?
