Mr. Neil Walker:

If the policy is right there will be opportunities. There are already costs associated with the policies in place but they are being borne. Some of them are very visible, such as the carbon tax and EU allowances, but there are also costs which are less obvious in terms of how the energy system is required to operate. We have not been complaining and we have been very progressive. It is fair enough to meet a target in a way which is efficient but there is nothing to be gained from doing it in a way which is inefficient. How would this help anybody? It would just mean there was less money over to do the work needed.
