Cormann, Sen Mathias

Senator CORMANN (Western Australia) (14:21): Mr President, I ask a further supple­mentary question. Given these models used by Treasury for the carbon tax modelling were paid for by the taxpayer, and given those models have not been released to date, will the minister give a guarantee that all of its modelling, including the actual models, datasets and specifications used by the Treasury, will be released before the carbon tax bills are debated by the Senate so that third parties can review and scrutinise them?
