Legislative Council Fifty-Third Parliament, Second Session (53-2) 53 2 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Motions Emergency Services Emergency Services The Hon. R.L. BROKENSHIRE Legislative Council The Hon. R.L. BROKENSHIRE (17:02): I move: That this council calls on the state government to immediately— 1.	Withdraw the calling of applications for the position of Commissioner for Emergency Services; and 2.	Not further proceed with foreshadowed changes to the structure of emergency services pending consideration of the report of the select committee of the Legislative Council, should it be established. I have covered most of this, so I will be brief. The reasons for this motion I have already put on the public record but, to summarise, there is great concern out there. There is justification for that concern. This is a huge and important issue. I call on the government to listen to the people and, if this house on their behalf calls for a halt to this, if a select committee is passed and produces a report, I believe we would be starting to show the proper appreciation and that the people who have expressed concern have been listened to. I advise the house that I will seek a vote on this motion next Wednesday of sitting after we have voted on the select committee. Debate adjourned on motion of Hon. T.J. Stephens.
