Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. I refer the minister to a report in the Australian Financial Review on 9 May which claimed that 'if the carbon price falls to its floor price in 2015 of $15 the value of generators could increase fourfold'. What future carbon prices has the government allowed generators to use in the valuation of their generation assets? Have any generators assumed carbon prices below the government's projections in the budget or below the floor price of $15?
