Mr LAUNDY (Reid) (15:04): My question is to the Minister for the Environment. I refer the minister to the New South Wales Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal's report— Opposition members interjecting— The SPEAKER: There will be silence on my left. Mr LAUNDY: I will start again, Madam Speaker. My question is to the Minister for the Environment. I refer the minister to the New South Wales Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal's report that states and confirms that gas prices would be as much as 9.2 per cent lower if the carbon tax were repealed. Why must the carbon tax be repealed and who is standing in the way? Opposition members interjecting— The SPEAKER: Before the minister begins his answer, we will have silence so that we can hear the answer. The minister has the call.
