Mr TURNBULL (Wentworth—Prime Minister) (14:01): If the Leader of the Opposition is to be taken at his word, his renewable energy objective would result in a $66 billion subsidy that would be imposed on Australian families—a subsidy that is completely unnecessary and which is effectively industry policy, pouring billions of dollars in additional costs onto Australian families. That's his policy. What we're doing is committed to ensuring that our energy policy delivers affordable and reliable power and that we meet our international commitments. We're taking up the recommendations of the Energy Security Board, the members of which were applauded by the member for Port Adelaide when they were appointed. He welcomed them—leading experts in the field— The SPEAKER: The Prime Minister will resume his seat. I again say to the Minister for the Environment and Energy that he's being far too loud. The Manager of Opposition Business on a point of order. Mr Burke: It's on direct relevance. You don't get a more specific direct question than this one. The SPEAKER: The Manager of Opposition Business will resume his seat. It was a short question. It didn't have a preamble, I concede that. I'm listening very closely to the Prime Minister. The requirement is that the Prime Minister be relevant to the question. I believe he's being relevant. It's not for him to answer it to the satisfaction of the questioner. He's on the policy topic. I will call the Prime Minister. Mr TURNBULL: The Leader of the Opposition will have to reflect on the expert advice of the Energy Security Board. This is someone who has called for bipartisanship in energy policy. That's what he's called for. What we have is a recommendation from an expert board appointed by COAG—appointed by more Labor governments than coalition governments. This is what they've said in their formal advice: 'It's expected that following the guarantee could lead to a reduction in residential bills in the order of $110 to $115 per annum over the 2020 to 2030 period. Wholesale prices are expected to decline by 20 to 25 per cent per annum over the same period. Compared to the clean energy target, as specified in the Finkel review, this guarantee could be expected to lead to wholesale prices that are on average eight to 10 per cent lower under that period.' We have arranged for the opposition to have a briefing from the Energy Security Board. We look forward to them becoming fully briefed and we encourage them to get on board and adopt this expert recommendation that, for the first time, will level the playing field, end the subsidies, end the taxes and ensure that we have a genuinely technology-agnostic energy market that enables us to have energy that is affordable, reliable and responsible. That's what Labor should support. It should stop the nonsense about its claimed bipartisanship and get real and get on board with the plan that guarantees Australia's energy future. Opposition members interjecting— The SPEAKER: The member for Isaacs will cease interjecting. The member for Griffith is now warned!
