Thank you, Madam President, for those congratulations. My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Climate Change and Energy, Senator Ayres. Ripple Creek Transport, a Townsville based business, has reported being hit with a 60 per cent increase in fuel prices. Many truckies cannot pass on these costs, and they then have to suffer with the higher costs of doing business. What practical action has the government taken to protect Ripple Creek Transport from fuel price gouging?
