In reply to the Hon. T.A. FRANKS ().16 May 2024).

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector): The Treasurer has advised:

The 2024-25 state budget includes additional funding of $817,000 over two years for the Country Fire Service (CFS) to undertake an audit of their facilities.

This additional funding will allow the CFS to commence this important piece of work.

The annual consideration of the emergency services levy will allow the Economic and Finance Committee to be kept informed of the progress of the audit.
