ST
JOHN AMBULANCE — SERVICE DELIVERY — REGIONS
290. Mr P.J. RUNDLE to the Minister for Volunteering:
I refer to the important role that volunteers play in
supporting ambulance services and first aid at sporting and community events across Western Australia,
especially in regional WA. What impact would the loss of commercial operations have on the not-for-profit charity St
John Ambulance's ability to deliver volunteer services for the broader community, especially in regional WA?

I thank the member for the question. I value the contribution
of all volunteers across Western Australia and I know that the ambulance volunteers work very well, as do the State Emergency
Service volunteers, the various firefighting and fire brigade
volunteers, marine rescue volunteers and, indeed, all volunteers across Western
Australia. I do not know how the member's question relates to me, given
that there is no government proposal that I am aware of, but an investigation
by a committee of the Parliament.
