Emergency services

Jeff BOURMAN (Eastern Victoria) (09:44): It has been a tough couple of weeks for East Gippsland, with fires and now, perversely, flooding. I think it is a good time to thank the CFA, the FRV and the SES volunteers and paid people for all the hard work they are doing, because whether they are paid or not, they are all putting their safety at risk in the service of our community, and I really do think as a Parliament we should acknowledge that.
