            <by role="member" id="1805">Mr GOLDSWORTHY:</by>  That's right—there has been a big void. I think where I left off from previously was confirming what the member for Stuart said: that the electorate of Kavel was the centre of the universe. I recall my comments were that pretty much every town in the electorate of Kavel has a CFS brigade; some of the small villages and hamlets do not, but the bigger towns—pretty well every large town in Kavel—has a CFS brigade. Over the 12 years that I have been in this place, I have been actively involved in their activity and concerned and interested in supporting them in their role of providing security and safety to the community.</text>

          <text id="201407036bb834e0548b4bd180000148">We all know the valuable contribution that CFS volunteers make to our community. They go out any time of the day or night, rain, hail or shine. Their commitment to the community in their volunteering is absolutely outstanding, and I made the point previously that society would be in chaos if it were not for our CFS volunteers and, more broadly, our volunteers right around South Australia. I need to seek leave again to continue my remarks.</text>
