 Tom McINTOSH (Eastern Victoria) (12:57): (2330) My question is to the Minister for Emergency Services. Minister, how is the Victorian Government making sure that our emergency services in Eastern Victoria are prepared for the challenges ahead? Emergency services supported in the budget this year included the Port Welshpool Coast Guard, who will receive a brand new vessel so they can continue to support the community on their stretch of waters in Gippsland; in Mirboo North, a brand new CFA station; and in Lakes Entrance, funding for detailed planning and design for a new CFA station. Thank you to all our emergency service volunteers who serve your local communities, and I look forward to delivering these investments.
