The Allan Government has repeatedly ignored FRV Firefighters’ requests for much-needed replacement of failing fire trucks and equipment, and FRV Firefighters’ demands to stop wasting public monies in an attempt to remove FRV Firefighters’ conditions of employment.
FRV Firefighters and the communities they protect are at serious risk.
Property owners once paid a Fire Services Property Levy. This money was intended to be spent on the Victorian fire services. Instead, the fire service has been neglected.
This year, the Allan Government pushed through a new Emergency Services tax on all rate payers – and doubled it! The burden of this significant tax increase will be felt by all Victorians including renters, small business owners, and farmers.
At the same time the Allan Government has imposed this new, increased ‘Emergency Services tax’, the Allan Government has imposed budget cuts to your fire service creating a situation where firefighter and community lives are at risk. This new tax will not be used to adequately fund the fire service to ensure the critical protection of firefighters and the community.
There is a fire crisis in Victoria. Your local firefighters need your support.
Make your Member of Parliament accountable – they are failing to provide the protection that is needed to ensure the safety of you and your family and firefighters who bravely serve the community.

A coalition of career and volunteer firefighters are calling for an urgent Parliamentary Inquiry into the January 2026 Victorian fires, warning that the scale of devastation now unfolding was foreseeable and preventable after years of government underinvestment in fire services, ageing fire trucks and ignored warnings from firefighters.
