QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Mr PASIN (Barker) (15:02): My question is to the Minister for Climate Change and Energy. Can the minister rule out making any changes to the diesel fuel credit arrangements, noting that any changes will slug farmers and miners— Mr Abdo interjecting— The SPEAKER: Order! I can't hear the member.

The member for Calwell will leave the chamber under 94(a). The member for Calwell then left the chamber. The SPEAKER: Out of respect for the member for Barker, he may begin his question again.

Mr PASIN: My question is to the Minister for Climate Change and Energy. Can the minister rule out making any changes to the diesel fuel credit arrangements, noting that any changes will slug farmers and miners with a tax increase of roughly 20c a litre, which will flow directly through to Australians in the form of higher fuel and grocery prices in this national crisis?
