Black Saturday
Michael GALEA (South-Eastern Metropolitan) (09:56): On another matter, I also wish to join colleagues from both sides of the chamber in acknowledging that yesterday was the 15-year anniversary of the Black Saturday fires. Like so many Victorians, it is a day I will never forget, nor the sacrifices made by so many of our amazing firefighters as well. I join members from across the house in acknowledging where we have come in the 15 years since.
