My adjournment matter for the Minister for Corrections relates to the impact of drug use and the disconnects between our justice and health systems in terms or resourcing for drug rehabilitation programs.
I moved a motion in Parliament to expand evidence and make sex offenders' histories known to Juries. We should follow the lead of other states and expand the range of evidence admissible to juries.
I ask the Treasurer if he could supply, for each year from 2014-15 inclusive, the total dollar amounts collected from the Fire Services Levy from all of the councils in my electorate – and, for those same years, how much (in total dollar amounts) they have received from the State Government specifically to upgrade bushfire-related infrastructure.
My question is to the Minister for Ambulance Services and relates to an case in Myrtleford of yet another slow ambulance response time. I ask the Minister what actions are being undertaken to improve ambulance resourcing and response times in regional areas.
