Floods
Peter WALSH (Murray Plains) (15:51): The people on the Tyntynder Flats in Swan Hill have lived through another flood event where their levee banks were not properly maintained and where this time the army came in to save them with sandbags. They want to see the Andrews government put in place a program where levee banks are maintained before there is an emergency so they do not have to suffer the stress of worrying as to whether their houses are going to flood, whether their businesses are going to flood or whether the roads are going to be closed because there is not proper maintenance to those levees. I urge the government to please address that issue on their behalf.
