They cater for the low socio-economic public and I think that the statuatory service should be free for these people like it is in other Australian states/territories. enough said.

Just because people come from or belong to a low socio-economic sub-set of the population does not mean that they should be subject to what at time may be questionable pre-hospital care. In a compassionate modern society these people should be able to have access to free quality assured PROFESSIONAL and QUALIFIED responders as mentioned by Saambo.
