Users of Labor’s failed Home Insulation Scheme - Demand Free Inspections
 I am concerned that thanks to Labor’s failed insulation scheme thousands of homes in Deakin may have been put at risk of fire.
A recent review undertaken by the MFB and CFA in Victoria has revealed there are a growing number of fires caused by insulation material being placed directly on top of down lights, and other electrical appliances (exhaust fans, transformers) in the roof space of houses.
The MFB and CFA strongly recommend that recently installed insulation be checked now and urge residents not to delay.
Thanks to Labor’s shoddy insulation scheme thousands more local homes could now be at risk of fire.
Safety is paramount and I encourage any homeowners who have been part of Labor’s failed insulation scheme to seek urgent information by calling their local Labor Member on 9874 4544 and demanding a free safety inspection.
Homeowners should not try to check things for themselves but should use qualified tradespersons. Tragically, four people have already died, and there is a real risk of more fatalities.
I am committed to doing all I can to ensure homeowners who have had insulation installed under Labor have access to safety inspections.
