Mr VIOLI (Casey—Opposition Chief Whip) (13:48): It was an honour on Saturday night to attend the Chirnside Park CFA annual dinner to say thank you to those volunteers who give so much to keep our community safe. I want to congratulate the captain, Ben, on six years of service to our community. We were celebrating the 10th birthday of the Chirnside Park CFA. Six years is a significant impact, and I want to wish Paul Simpson all the best. I know the brigade is in good hands. I recently had the opportunity to attend the Mooroolbark CFA annual dinner. It was a great event. Again, it was to celebrate those that volunteer to give so much to keep us safe. Unfortunately, I could not attend the Lilydale CFA annual dinner. It was on 3 May, so we were all quite busy. But it was lucky that their dinner was at the same location as my after-election event, so I could drop in and say hello to the team there and congratulate them on a wonderful year. We have so many volunteers in the CFA, who will, at the drop of a hat, leave their families, their loved ones and their businesses to keep our community safe. They volunteer; they do it for free. In the Yarra Valley and the Dandenong Ranges, we know how important the CFA are. We thank them today; we thank them every day. I'm looking forward to visiting many other CFA annual dinners, including Wonga Park, Montrose and many others, to say thank you for keeping our community safe.
