Hon CHRIS HIPKINS: Like all of the workforce, Fire and Emergency are experiencing disruption due to COVID-19 and due to other winter illness, including influenza. I am confident, as Minister, that the fire service is managing that in the most appropriate way. Where a fire crew is under-crewed because of workforce disruption, they have an ability to move crews around and respond accordingly, as they do, for example, when a fire station is responding to multiple different incidents.
