On Thursday, 26 March 2015, Senator Doug Cameron, in questions without notice in the other place in relation to the Blue Mountains bush fires of October 2013, claimed falsely that I was silent. The senator went on to criticise me further. His claims are false and scurrilous. In addition to the significant assistance I provided on the ground for the devastated community, I made numerous representations in writing and personally to the minister, including the Prime Minister. The senator was noticeably absent from these meetings.
