 This year we celebrate the 25th anniversary of National Volunteer Week. This year we are celebrating the power of volunteering. And when one looks across the Australian society, we see volunteer work at every level of the way in which the community operates. A particularly important group of volunteers are those who are involved in emergency service delivery and emergency management. And in particular for CFA and SES volunteers who operate within the sector. This is a time to pause, to reflect on the contribution that our wonderful volunteers and in particular our emergency service volunteers make to the community. We would all be the poorer and indeed life would be far worse without our emergency services volunteers who perform a critical role under very difficult conditions every day, 24 hours a day, 365 days of the year. This is a time to celebrate every individual who volunteers. It's a time to thank them, to thank their families, to thank their communities and to thank their employers, whoever they may be. So to all of you in CFA and to all who are involved in emergency service and emergency management volunteering. On behalf of CFA, I'd like to say thank you for a job well done. You do essential work, it is appreciated. And in this National Volunteering Week we pause to celebrate and acknowledge that vital work you do in the community. Thank you, job well done, keep up the good work.
