SA Firefighter General / Re: SAAS Responding Other Services..
« on: October 01, 2006, 12:08:09 AM »
I would like to re-enforce Medevac's post. - Since it seems some are all to quick to give a very public bashing of other services without often knowing the facts.
All that is seen on the pager website messages that were posted, is the SAAS response - no SAPOL (as the function is not supported/ possible), and would have shown subsequent / previous fire service / SES responses if they occured.
This is where I point particular attention to Medevac's message. - If SAAS received the call from SAPOL, (knowing the SAPOL responses are not seen), they are under nil (no) obligation to contact fire / rescue authorities - as they are not the service taking the original call.
If they were the service who took the call, then yes, it is questionable as to why the other services were not responded.
Is it known 100% who took the call, or is it a guess and straight to the blame game?
