Constituency questions

South-Eastern Metropolitan Region


Ann-Marie HERMANS

South-Eastern Metropolitan Region

Ann-Marie HERMANS (South-Eastern Metropolitan) (12:37): (232) My constituency question is for the Minister for Emergency Services. I recently met with people from the CFA in Nar Nar Goon, which services a very large area, including areas in the South-Eastern Metropolitan Region. The CFA have been having to work within situations and circumstances in premises that are not up to scratch when you compare them to what the FRV are given in terms of their stations. This CFA is in desperate need of an overhaul and an upgrade, so I would like to ask the minister to please meet with these members of the CFA in Nar Nar Goon and see what can be done to provide them with premises that are more compliant and will be safer for them to be able to exit and enter when they come in and out with their trucks. That is my question: could the minister please meet with them?
