STATEMENTS BY MEMBERS

Mr KENNEDY (Cook) (13:59): In my electorate, manufacturing businesses are being crushed by this government's irresponsible energy policy. FJP Manufacturing's electricity prices are up 76 per cent in just two years. This government is driving us off an economic cliff, and this madness has to stop.

I call on the Minister for Climate Change and Energy to stop this reckless policy, stop killing Australian manufacturing and put this country back on track. The SPEAKER: In accordance with standing order 43, the time for members' statements has concluded.
