Metropolitan Fire Service

The Hon. R.L. BROKENSHIRE (14:54): A supplementary: based on the minister's answers, will he come back to the house and advise how many injured members of the MFS have been made redundant over the past five years?

The Hon. P. MALINAUSKAS (Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety) (14:54): I don't have them at hand, but I have seen statistics and reports in the time that I have been minister regarding the number of lost time injuries that occur within different agencies, and that would obviously be a good indicator of compensatable injuries. I am happy to get that information and share it with the honourable member, if it is appropriate to do so. Regarding the number of redundancies, I have not seen a report with that specific number, but I am more than happy to chase it down. Unless there is any impediment to share it, I am more than happy to do it.
