Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. I notice the minister obviously did not get the brief from Minister Burke saying that you cannot compromise on fundamentals, and that goes particularly for science, but I ask the minister: can he confirm that the plan represents another example of the government and opposition getting together against the environment, and that is about to happen again on 7 December at the COAG meeting, where once again political expediency and the interests of the Business Council will triumph over any commitment to a healthy environment?
