PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
HOAX CALLERS (18 November 2002)
Motion Details
That this House is deeply concerned that 25,000 hoax calls are being made each week to the emergency services which accounts for 50 per cent. of all calls made; notes that this puts lives at risk and places enormous strain on the emergency services; believes that making such calls at any time is dangerous and irresponsible, but that doing so during the firefighters strike is particularly appalling; and calls for custodial sentences to be administered to those who perpetrate such thoughtless action.
