 But the White Ribbon Foundation has been formed to draw attention to this issue but also to acknowledge that there is some hope and the research which has been conducted into this problem indicates that building greater quality and respect between men and women can reduce attitudes that support violence. And again if I could reflect on some conversations which are going on in CFA at the moment around developing a refreshed set of values for the organisation. This is another great opportunity for CFA to include some very strong values and behaviour statements in the way that we want CFA to be and the culture and respect that we want to see within the organisation. Social policy initiatives addressing gender inequity are central to reducing violence against women. So it's about fair and equal opportunity and reducing the inequitable gender equity that we have in our workplace. And that also is quite strong within CFA. When I look around particularly in our operational ranks amongst our operational career firefighters also when I look across the number of female leaders in our volunteer ranks they are underrepresented and there is no reason, there is no rational cause for women to be underrepresented in CFA. So I'm going to ask you all now to join with me in swearing the oath against violence against women. So what I'll do I'll say a few words I'll ask you then to repeat those words and we'll get through it. It's a very quick oath so after me please swear. I swear. Let's put up a hand so we can really make a commitment. I swear. Remember to commit, excuse or remain silent about violence against women. This is my oath. Thank you ladies and gentlemen give yourself a round of applause. Individually and collectively we've made a stand. The really important thing is when you go back to your workplace when you go back to your social place or your home to make sure that you keep this front of mind not just today but every day if you hear of or you see or you are the subject of violence in the workplace particularly violence against women then do something about it. I think you've all learned a muffin. Thank you very much ladies and gentlemen. Well done.
