I will just say this to the honourable senator in relation to the Productivity Commission and the future of the Australian car industry. You may or may not be aware of this, Senator, but I will just go through the terms of the inquiry. The broad terms of reference include examination of the industry's structure, productivity, investment, profitability, international competitiveness, exports, workforce structure and practices and long-term sustainability. This government is committed to the sustainability of Australian industry. This government will not do things like impose a mining tax and a carbon tax which are going to destroy employment in this country. (Time expired)
