8. (SOUNDBITE) (English) COMMISSIONER OF FIRE AND RESCUE NEW SOUTH WALES, JEREMY FEWTRELL, SAYING:

"Predominantly the team is made up of pilots for our specialist drones. They've got a range of remote sensing tools which will help them sort of look through the dirt, so to speak. I guess it will allow them to understand where the dirt is, where the structures are and help guide the decision-making for the local emergency management authorities to understand where they can put their resources and the strength of the drones is they are able to reach places that would be harder to get to, take longer to get to and be able to do that much more quickly and safely."
