My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Brandis. On 1 July, EnergyAustralia's electricity prices for the average household in New South Wales went up by nearly 20 per cent, or almost $320 a year. Why then is the government making it harder for pensioners, trying to make ends meet, by cutting the $365 energy supplement?
