Senator WONG (South Australia—Minister for Finance and Deregulation) (14:16): What my answer would be is: do not be fooled by the fear campaign from those opposite; do not be fooled by them saying they are worried about a carbon price, when their policy would impose a higher cost on your family. Do not be fooled by Senator Edwards saying he cares about jobs, when he is lining up to take $1.5 billion out of the car industry. Why don't you go out to the northern suburbs of Adelaide and sell that, Senator? Why don't you go out to the northern suburbs of Adelaide and explain to the vehicle manufacturers and the workers in that industry why you want to walk away from the automotive sector? What I would also say to those South Australians is this: remember Work Choices, because that showed what the Liberal Party really thinks of working people. Senator Edwards: Mr President, my point of order goes to relevance. I am purely interested in the minister's message to the 1,500 South Australians. That is my point of order—relevance: the message from the minister to the 1,500 South Australians. The PRESIDENT: There is no point of order. The minister is addressing the question. The minister has one minute and seven seconds remaining. Senator WONG: I would say to them; don't be fooled by the fear campaign from those opposite, who peddle mistruths and falsehoods. We can grow our economy, including South Australia's, with a carbon price. We can grow jobs. We can grow our incomes. That is what the modelling shows. We know that a price on carbon is critical to ensuring that we get investment into the clean energy jobs which will sustain our economy in the decades ahead. We know that we do not want to be left behind as the world increasingly moves to put a premium on low-carbon goods and services, and we have designed a plan which will ensure that we make that transition efficiently. Those opposite have a plan which will impose greater costs on working Australian—not something they care about—and they will give money to large polluters in the hope that they might do something with it. The reality is that the priorities of the coalition are not about jobs; the priorities of the coalition are all about the coalition's fear campaign.
