FEDERAL GOVERNMENT —
INCIDENT RESPONSE AND COMMUNICATION FAILOVER CENTRE
1294. Hon MARTIN ALDRIDGE to the Minister for Emergency Services:
I
refer to a key election commitment made in May 2022 by Tania Lawrence, the self-described
''Fighter for Hasluck '', in which $1.25 million was
committed to create an incident response and communication failover centre.
(1) Can the minister advise the
house what an ''incident response and communication failover centre''
is?
(2) Has the state
received the $1.25 million from the Albanese Labor government for the centre
and what is the estimated cost of the centre?
(3) Has planning
commenced for the centre, where will the centre be located and who will manage
it?
(4) Can the
minister table any correspondence between his office, the member for Hasluck
and the Australian government on the delivery of this election commitment?
