In my speech earlier today I referred to what a rort this is—to the point where some retailers are actually giving away these heaters for free because they benefit so much under the current rort that exists. That has to be stopped. This legislation is meant to be rolling out renewable energy, not allowing rorts, so I support the amendments that Senator Xenophon has moved.
