Pinery Bushfires

The Hon. K.L. VINCENT (15:27): Supplementary: given that the CFS plan that has arisen out of the Pinery fires includes information about sharing public information about bushfire events, does it include anything to do with accessible information for people with low literacy issues, for example?

The Hon. P. MALINAUSKAS (Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety) (15:27): I am not aware of an answer in respect of the low literacy question. I am more than happy to seek that information and bring it back to the Hon. Ms Vincent. In respect of our state emergency management plans having arrangements in place regarding Auslan interpreters as we seek to get information out to the community, I have spoken about that particular issue in this place a number of times. The existing arrangements remain in place but, again, I am happy to seek additional information regarding your concern around literacy.
