For info. Has this been discussed already? I couldn't find it anywhere if it has.
http://www.bushfirereview.cfs.sa.gov.au/Quote from the website:
"We live in the driest state in Australia. Our state is vulnerable to bushfires and the number of bushfires that our emergency services are responding to is ever increasing.
With this in mind, in late 2006, I instigated the first formal review into bushfire prevention management since the early 1980’s.
The review recognises that the management of bushfires occurs within the broader emergency management framework of prevention, preparedness, response and recovery.
You are invited to provide input into the review. The terms of reference and some accompanying questions have been developed to assist with this.
As part of the review a reference group has been established to consider community input. They will also take into account the recommendations from Project Phoenix, the CFS internal review into the Wangary Bushfire and the outcomes of the Independent inquiry into the Eyre Peninsula Bushfires.
At the end of the review it is hoped that South Australia will have a bushfire prevention management framework that reflects best practice; engages and involves those who have a stake in community safety; improves the bushfire safety of the community; and minimises damage to those things that are valued by the community.
I welcome your input.
Hon Carmel Zollo MLC"
