(a) Expenditure in 2012/13 from the special allocation for fire management was $6 164 278. The planned expenditure in 2013/14 from the special allocation of funding for fire management is $8 610 000.
(b) The expenditure in 2012/13 from the special allocation for fire management relating to additional personnel, training and other items such as fleet costs and safety and operational equipment was $4 524 390. It is not possible to break this down to the individual expenditure categories sought by the member as the account codes used to assign the special allocation funds to expenditure categories are the same as those used for existing fire management budgets.
The planned expenditure in 2013/14 from the special allocation for fire management relating to additional personnel, training and other items such as fleet costs and safety and operational equipment is $5 325 000.
The expenditure in 2012/13 from the special allocation for fire management relating to bridge maintenance and construction was $795 552, with planned expenditure for bridge maintenance and construction in 2013/14 being $2 635 000.
(c) The number of new full-time equivalents funded from the special allocation for fire management is 52. None of these positions are managers.
