WILUNA TOWN BUSH FIRE
BRIGADE
273. Hon COLIN de GRUSSA to the minister representing the
Minister for Emergency Services:
I refer to an article published by
ABC Online today about the Wiluna Town Bush Fire Brigade being unequipped to
respond to structural fires.
(1) Will the
minister respond to the shire's request for more resources and an
equipment upgrade for the town fire brigade?
(2) Can the
minister outline how he intends to assist firefighting response capability in
Wiluna?
(3) Does the
minister believe the risks to lives and structures posed by fire in Wiluna is
different from that in other parts of the state?

I thank the honourable member for some notice of the
question.
That question does not appear in my folder today, and it is a
very big folder. If it is found, it will be brought in, and I will give the
answer at the end of question time.
