Environment, Water and Natural Resources Department Fire Management

The Hon. J.S.L. DAWKINS (15:02): By way of supplementary question, given that the prescribed burn was conducted in heavily wooded country, why wasn't the CFS informed? Why wasn't it on the CFS website if the minister says that the CFS had provided advice? I find that hard to believe.

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Climate Change) (15:02): I do not accept any of the allegations the honourable member is making in his question. I am not even sure that they are true at all. They are of course things that I will take back and ask questions about of my agency, but I do not accept for a moment that those assertions are based on any fact whatsoever.
