In this transaction, is the Minister not taking that hypothecated, ring-fenced funding and, because it is unspent for whatever reason, moving it to somewhere entirely inappropriate for it to be spent? This move will drive people further into fuel poverty rather than protect them. They will be paying for this through taxes in the first instance, with carbon tax as part of that, and on their electricity bills at the back end. They will not have the protection of retrofitting, which it was to be ring-fenced for.
