Bushfire Prevention and Management

The Hon. J.A. DARLEY (15:18): My question is to the Minister for Health and Wellbeing, representing the Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Correctional Services, about bushfire prevention and management. Can the minister advise what preparations are being undertaken to prepare for the bushfire season and whether our existing fire-management techniques incorporate traditional Aboriginal knowledge?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (15:18): I thank the honourable member for his question and I am happy to refer it to the minister in the other place.
