Ms GILLARD (Lalor—Prime Minister) (14:23): The last thing I ever do is accept figures from the opposition, because they are normally misrepresented. So I will have a look at today's figures from the opposition and analyse them. But can I say to the member who asked the question: one thing that should not be misrepresented in this place is what Alcoa has said about the changes at Point Henry. Opposition members interjecting— Ms GILLARD: Of course, the opposition are screaming away because they never want the facts; they want to insult the intelligence of working people by denying them the facts. Well, the facts are these: Alan Cransberg, the Managing Director of Alcoa, said: A combination of factors, including metal prices, input costs and exchange rates, have resulted in the Point Henry smelter becoming unprofitable— and that his goal is to continue operating, that this is an unsettling period but that he believes that the smelter can be competitive. That is the news from Alcoa, and no amount of fearmongering— Mr Hunt: Mr Speaker, I rise on a point of order on relevance. The question was in relation to an $11 million figure given in the company's statement in terms of a 1c rise versus a— The SPEAKER: The member will resume his seat. The Prime Minister will be directly relevant to the supplementary question. Ms GILLARD: On the facts about Alcoa, as opposed to the things that the opposition have been misrepresenting over the last few days, let's conclude with these words of the Managing Director of Alcoa, where he said: It [is] important to note that the review— that is, the review of the Port Henry smelter— has not been prompted by a future price on carbon. Stop coming in here and insulting the workers in that place. (Time expired) Mr Hunt: Mr Speaker, I seek leave to table Alcoa's 9 January earnings presentation. Leave not granted. Mr Hunt interjecting— The SPEAKER: Leave has not been granted. The honourable member will resume his seat and will not engage in chit-chat across the table.
