Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. Given the bulk of the text on global warming to 2055 in the Intergenerational report is occupied with reiterating the government's Emissions Reduction Fund policy, why is modelling of this policy's hugely-growing drag on the budget not factored into the forecasts? The longer you pay polluters, more expensive reducing pollution becomes; where is the modelling of the impact of your policy in this document?
