Murray Bridge might be a good start. Then Tanunda.

No I think Kapunda and Peterborough are very high risk areas that deserve fulltime staffing....

They would have to pull Eudunda station out of mothballs and re-staff it, but its a viable prospect......

I heard that calls went out last week informing that letters will come out by the end of the year for a recruit course at the end of March!! Either way it seems like a long time between the phone call to time of pat2.

So, Pat2 starts week of 13/2/2012, and squad 44 starts 26/3/2012.

No probs finding places for them all, B and D shift have been regularly recalling for OT in the northern stations, plus some more Comms operators if all goes to plan

I see the MFS website has been updated to say it is not known when the MFS will be recruiting again!! Did anyone find out if there is a recruit course scheduled for May next year as well as the March course?

If some get their way it will be advertised to other Emergency Services Staff, and I reckon there would be plenty interested in jumping ship

They are proposing to advertise for comms ppl internally to the likes of CFS and SES Staff, but not Voli's.
18 ppl have had ph calls to prepare for Pat2, dates as previously mentioned. Letters to come later

The reserves from the last Pat2's become the first members of this next squad.  18 do Pat2, so the last ones in 'order of merit' become the next reserves incase of sickness/fail etc.

Not set in concrete, has to be approved by all parties first.
And given it is different to the way Comms has 'always been' then it may take time to get it approved. Union will be the first one that will have something to say im sure

Couldnt see the Union letting it happen. Comms is a nice place for people with long term injuries to go.
