Senator CAROL BROWN (Tasmania) (14:53): Dr Kerry Schott, Chair of the government's own Energy Security Board has said, 'There would be absolutely no way that anybody would be financing a new coal-fired generation plant because the cost of coal is always going to be more than the cost of wind and sun.' Can the minister confirm that Minister Frydenberg is ignoring Dr Schott's advice to satisfy the hard Right of the coalition party room? (Time expired) Honourable senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: I'll remind senators on both sides of the chamber of my plea for silence during the question.
