The HUNCH BACK IS FKM. WITH THE CFA AGAIN
May 19th, 2017 at 10:42am
 
Victorian Government Cabinet ministers have endorsed a plan to split the Country Fire Authority in two, making the CFA a volunteer-only agency and creating a new agency called Fire Rescue Victoria (FRV) to cover all paid firefighters.

The new body will be established to fight fires in Melbourne and major regional centres.

"What we are going to do is move all of our career firefighters, paid firefighters into a new structure, Fire Rescue Victoria," Premier Daniel Andrews told ABC Radio Melbourne.

"Then we will have a purely volunteer service, the Country Fire Authority, with a $100-million boost to support, [buy] equipment, [and] the funding they need to attract new volunteers and more volunteers."

Traditionally the Metropolitan Fire Brigade has worked in the urban areas of Melbourne, while the CFA battles fires in country areas and the city's outer suburbs, with combination of volunteers and professional firefighters.

CFA volunteers serving at the state's 35 integrated stations will be able to stay there.

What is behind the long-running CFA dispute in Victoria?



The Country Fire Authority (CFA) dispute has dominated Victorian politics, spread into the federal arena and become the subject of court action.
The Government plans to spend $56.2 million on volunteer recruitment for the organisation.

Mr Andrews said 450 additional paid firefighters would also be recruited and there would be a focus on the hiring and training female firefighters.

Looks like a good move. A move the CFA brought on themselves.

Yep. 

This thread probably should be moved to Victoria though.

Two new fire services are to be created. One will be focused on urban areas and staffed by paid, professional firefighters; the other will be focused on non-urban areas with its firefighters drawn from volunteers only.  The model works well in New South Wales and tackles several structural problems that have bedevilled Victoria’s fire services for decades.
