The Workers Rehabilitation and Compensation (SACFS) Amendment Bill was introduced by the Hon Tammy Franks on 7 May 2014 to provide volunteer firefighters with the same presumptive protection for 12 specified cancers as is already available to career firefighters, without the need for them to prove which carcinogen, toxin or hazard of a fire scene they had been exposed to during their volunteer firefighting career. The Bill provides that a CFS volunteer firefighter's cancer is taken to have been work related unless there is evidence to the contrary. Firefighters are usually the first responders in the event of fire or other emergency situations and while many of us run away from danger, these brave, highly respected men and women run toward it. It is a sad reality that while protecting the community from fire, chemical spills and other emergencies, firefighters put their own safety at risk. We hear news reports about injuries and fatalities arising from the work performed by firefighters but we don't hear a lot about longer term risks such as cancer. Firefighters can be exposed to contaminants from fires that are known or suspected to cause cancer. These contaminants include combustion by-products such as benzene and formaldehyde, and materials in debris such as asbestos from older structures. Research findings in the United States recently revealed that firefighters had mesothelioma at twice the rate of the American population as whole. The cause is likely to be related to exposure to asbestos. In 2011 the Commonwealth Government introduced legislation to provide presumptive protection for career firefighters who contracted any one of 12 specified cancers. A Senate inquiry found that while there was sufficient evidence to provide presumptive protection for career firefighters there was insufficient evidence to provide the same protection for volunteer firefighters. But internationally many countries including Canada provide the same presumptive protection for volunteer firefighters as for career firefighters. In Australia, while the debate continues in some States, Tasmania and Western Australia have legislated to provide volunteer firefighters with presumptive protection in the event that they contract one of the 12 specified cancers. International research has demonstrated very clear links between the work that firefighters perform and cancer. They are at greater risk than the rest of the community in contracting 12 specific cancers including brain cancer, bladder cancer, kidney cancer and leukemia to name a few. In October 2014, the Deputy Premier together with the Minister for Emergency Services announced that volunteer firefighters would immediately be provided with the same presumptive protection as their career counterparts. The Workers Rehabilitation and Compensation (SACFS) Amendment Bill has now been superseded by the changes made as a result of this announcement. Section 31 of the Workers Rehabilitation and Compensation Act 1986 and Schedule 3 of the Return to Work Act 2014 (which has not yet commenced) have been amended to provide presumptive protection for volunteer firefighters who contract one of the 12 prescribed cancers. But their entitlements are time limited. Career firefighter may make a workers Page i compensation claim for cancer at any time after ceasing operational activities, while volunteer firefighters who ceased operational activities 10 years earlier no longer retain this entitlement. This restriction is likely to make it more difficult for volunteer firefighters to prove the connection between their cancer and their previous work as a volunteer firefighter in the event that they contract a cancer of exceptionally long latency. Monash University recently released a report on a retrospective study of the mortality and cancer incidence in Australian firefighters. The report, which was funded by the Australian Fire and Emergency Service Authorities Council (AFAC) was prompted by overseas research which identified excesses in several types of cancer in firefighters. The Australian study examined the work, incident and medical information relating to male and female career, part-time and volunteer firefighters. In relation to male volunteer firefighters, the researchers found that they had a significantly increased risk of dying in a fire and had a significantly elevated risk of contracting some cancers compared to the Australian population. The health data on female volunteer firefighters was statistically more difficult to analyse because of the low number of deaths or cancer cases. But it was noted that there was an increased risk of accidental death compared to the Australian population as well as an increased risk of melanomas and colorectal cancer. While the report found the firefighters are a healthier cohort than the general population, length of service as firefighters can increase the risk of contracting cancer. However, Monash University reported that risk estimates were uncertain and should be interpreted cautiously. They recommended a follow up in five years. Of concern to the research study findings was the lack of available data on occupationally related mesothelioma, which has an extremely long latency period. Mesothelioma has been found to be twice as common in US firefighters compared to the US population and is likely to be due to exposure to asbestos. Monash University researchers consider this area to be worthy of further investigation and research.

OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY, REHABILITATION AND COMPENSATION COMMITTEE 1.1 Preamble This is the 19th report of the Parliamentary Committee on Occupational Safety, Rehabilitation and Compensation (the Committee) and is in response to a referral from the House of Assembly in relation to the Workers Rehabilitation and Compensation (SACFS)) Amendment Bill 2014 (SACFS Bill). The SACFS Bill, which was introduced into the Legislative Council by the Hon Tammy Franks on 7 May 2014 adds a presumption into the Workers Rehabilitation and Compensation Act 1986 that: 'if a volunteer fire fighter suffers from one of the 12 prescribed primary site cancers and they have been exposed to carcinogens, toxins, or hazards of a fire scene for a significant part of their volunteer service, then their cancer is presumed to be caused because of their duty as a firefighter.'

  • Premier Jay Weatherill News Release
    News Release Premier Jay Weatherill Tuesday , 3 January 2015 Maher joins Cabinet as Close takes Education and Child Development Kyam Maher is the new Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation and Minister Susan Close will take on the Education and Child Development portfolio following a swearing in ceremony at Government House. Premier Jay Weatherill said today’s reshuffle was necessitated by Monday’s retirement of Jennifer Rankine from the Ministry. “Beyond the replacement of Minister Rankine it is essentially a fine-tuning of portfolios,” he said. Other changes include Deputy Premier John Rau taking on the new portfolio of Child Protection Reform meaning he takes responsibility for responding to the findings of the Royal Commission into Families SA and the Coroner’s findings from the Chloe Valentine inquest. Sustainability, Environment and Conservation Minister Ian Hunter gains the new portfolio of Climate Change while Minister Close retains the Public Sector portfolio and takes on Education and Child Development. Member for Reynell Katrine Hildyard joins executive Government as a Parliamentary Secretary to the Premier. Mr Maher will also take on the responsibility as Minister for Automotive Transformation and Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation. Mr Weatherill welcomed Mr Maher to the Cabinet table saying he has demonstrated acuity on committees and as a member of the Legislative Council. “Kyam took up a parliamentary secretary role last year and is one of the crop of young talented individuals ready to step up,” Mr Weatherill said. “He is former State Secretary of the Labor Party and was also a chief of staff to former Minister Terry Roberts who held the portfolios of Regional Affairs, Aboriginal Affairs and Correctional Services.

  • (Adelaide) Chief Justice Kourakis and Freedom of Information 5:30 Mins
    Networked Knowledge Media Reports Networked Knowledge Videos Homepage Networked Knowledge Henry Keogh Homepage Networked Knowledge Dr Manock Homepage 27 June 2018 Today Tonight (Adelaide) Chief Justice Kourakis and Freedom of Information 5:30 mins. Link to video of this program Rosanna Mangiarelli (presenter): Well after 16 years of a government notorious for keeping secrets, blocking freedom of information requests, leaving thousands of questions asked in parliament unanswered, and even choking off access to court records the election brought the possibility for change. But as Graham Archer reports it appears that in this regard the deck chairs have only been moved. Vicky Chapman, Shadow Attorney-General file tape: My question is to the Attorney-General. Why was the report dated 22 November 2004 of Professor Vernon-Roberts not disclosed to Henry Keogh’s legal representatives until the fifth of December 2013? Graham Archer reporter: This is our Attorney-General Vicky Chapman while in opposition pushing for government transparency again and again. Vicky Chapman, Shadow Attorney-General file tape: Has the Attorney spoken to the Solicitor-General Martin Hinton on the question of why the report dated 22 November 2004 of Professor Vernon-Roberts was not disclosed to Henry Keogh’s legal representatives for nearly ten years? Graham Archer: The report in question from the State’s top pathologist was commissioned in 2004 by the former Solicitor-General, now Chief Justice, Chris Kourakis, while preparing his advice to the Rann government over Henry Keogh’s request for a judicial review of his case. Kevin Foley Acting Attorney-General file tape: After considering the report of the Solicitor- General I have formed the opinion that it did not disclose any arguable basis on which the Supreme Court could find that there had been a miscarriage of justice.
