In reply to  Ms LOVELL (Northern Victoria) (14 August 2019)

Ms NEVILLE (Bellarine—Minister for Water, Minister for Police and Emergency Services):

The safety and security of CFA volunteers is of paramount importance. The CFA is aware of the security concerns at the Mooroopna fire station and matters have been referred to the local police for investigation.

The CFA is investigating options for security fencing at the station to enhance current security measures, which include CCTV cameras and motion activated lighting for the station’s car park. The station is located on a corner site and the local council has advised that it would approve a ‘see-through’ fence recessed from the corner to minimise visibility issues. The CFA is obtaining quotes to establish an accurate budget for construction and will continue to work with local council to confirm permit and approval requirements.

The CFA is considering funding options to support fencing construction.
