Why is no one talking about Firefighters?

The change to your OP was done for the convenience of other forum members (to save them having to go hunting the internet in order to validate your post), and it actually supports the argument you're raising by better promoting the firefighters' website.

I consider it bad form to expect forum users to expend effort to investigate the worth of posted content. If you aren't familiar with inserting hyperlinks in your posts (using the 'chain link' icon immediately below the rainbow icon above) we'll be happy to assist you.

Well then let's get back to it.

$200 million was spent merging the fire service and rural fire service.  Of the $200 million none of it went into front line equipment.  In fact the Fire Union is trying to find out just where it did go as FENZ went tell them.

since the fire service is a government department then they would be required to provide financials to the public...
This one from 2021 for example

For anything else an OIA request might be in order.

200mil seems a lot for a merger of two similar organisations though
