Bushfires commemoration


Bushfires commemoration

David DAVIS (Southern Metropolitan) (09:42): I join with Ms Shing in noting the anniversary of the 2009 fires and the terrible impact. Many of us who were active in public life at the time remember the terrible impact and remember the terrible sense as you went into those towns and saw the damage that had been done, the lives that had been impacted so dramatically, and still there is significant resonance from those times. I also join Ms Shing in noting that next week is Ash Wednesday, an anniversary in that sense, and we should also note the terrible results there.
