Seems the channel is needed for legitimate purposes, they just need to restrict access to those large number of SES and RFS radio who use it as nothing more than a 'scanner'.
You are correct they are just using it as a scanner, but i guess since its an ESO Channel the NOCC don't want to start disabling radios so they cannot monitor that channel even if that is possible

Police & FRNSW CommCent's can assign jobs and communicate direct with each other via the Emergency Service CAD system, so no need for phone calls between Police Radio Rooms & FRNSW Comm's Centres.
Rescue call-outs are just sent via the ESCAD by Police to either Sydney or Newcastle Comm's Centres, and the FSNSW Operator just responds with an Acknowledgement of the job, and in most cases the ESCAD just responds the nearest FRNSW Rescue Crews.
Believe the same System is in place and available between all services, just a matter of patching it in between each Services (SES, RFS, ASNSW ect) State Communication Centre service as needed.
