I thank Senator Wang for his contribution and for putting forward his amendment on the concept of reviewing obligations under the current self-generator exemption arrangements of the RET scheme. While it does have some merit to it, this is really neither the time nor the place to throw new and undebated changes into the RET as it currently has been negotiated and agreed upon. I do take on board the contribution he has made with his amendment, specifically in relation to the self-generator exemption arrangements, but at this point in time, with what we are debating right now, the opposition will not be supporting the amendment.
