(Question No 878)

Mr Smyth asked the Minister for Police and Emergency Services, upon notice, on 25 March 2010:

(1) How much has the Emergency Services Agency spent on training programs in 2009-10 to date.

(2) What was the purpose of the training programs referred to in part (1) and how many staff participated.

Mr Corbell: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:
