Clean Energy Package

In reply to Mr WHETSTONE (Chaffey) (22 July 2014). (Estimates Committee A)

The Hon. M.L.J. HAMILTON-SMITH (Waite—Minister for Investment and Trade, Minister for Defence Industries, Minister for Veterans' Affairs):

The budget differential can be attributed to the closure of the Renewable Energy Fund in 2011-12, following the federal government's success in achieving support through the federal parliament for its clean energy package of over $13 billion at the time.
