QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator HANSON (Queensland—Leader of One Nation) (14:52): Minister, I'm asking you to tell us how much it's costing the taxpayers for wind, solar and batteries. That's what we have to know. Is it $50 billion or $60 billion?

How much is it costing the taxpayers? Why are you keeping it secret from the taxpayers? The taxpayers are footing the bill for this; they have a right to know.

Now, you said you'd give me figures, so I'll be interested to see what figures you intend to give me.
