Emergency Services Volunteers

The Hon. B.R. HOOD (14:54): Supplementary: in the minister's discussions with the volunteers of emergency services, have any of those volunteers raised issues with the volunteer support from the CFS?

The Hon. E.S. BOURKE (Minister for Emergency Services and Correctional Services, Minister for Autism, Minister for Recreation, Sport and Racing) (14:54): I have had many conversations with people across South Australia from the different regions for the CFS and the overwhelming response is how much they love giving back to their community. Being a valued member of the community is their primary focus and, as I have said to each and every one of them that I have spoken to: my door is open and I am willing to hear their stories and I will be listening to them.
