Mr SHORTEN (Maribyrnong—Leader of the Opposition) (14:04): My question is to the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister stated in 2009: I will not lead a party that is not as committed to effective action on climate change as I am. But this week RepuTex has confirmed that not one company will be required to reduce its pollution levels under the Liberals' Direct Action Plan. Why is the Prime Minister sticking with such an ineffectual policy to tackle climate change?
