GAGO (Minister for Regional Development, Minister for Public Sector Management, Minister for the Status of Women, Minister for Consumer Affairs, Minister for Government Enterprises) (15:17): </by> As I indicated, the current arrangements have meant that small to medium-sized domestic customers are currently paying less than equivalent on-grid customers, and these changes are about bringing that into line. There is support and assistance available, as I have outlined, so that is a positive thing. I will refer all detailed aspects of the questions to minister O'Brien.</text>
