          <by role="member" id="546">Mr WILLIAMS (MacKillop—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:20): </by> My question is to the Minister for Energy. Can the minister inform the house how many concession cardholders do not have solar panels on their roofs and therefore are subsidising the government's solar feed-in scheme, and how many concession cardholders do have solar panels on their roofs and therefore are beneficiaries of the scheme?</text>
