Yan Yean electorate
Lauren KATHAGE (Yan Yean) (14:56): (123) My question is for the Minister for Mental Health, and it relates to the Victorian suicide prevention and response strategy. Minister, I understand that the public consultation on this strategy recently ended and that the government has now received over 240 submissions from a range of individuals and organisations. Each submission is an invaluable insight into the unique needs of so many Victorians. Research indicates that people with disabilities, including neurodiverse individuals, are at a greater risk of suicide than the general population. Can the minister advise how the Victorian suicide prevention and response strategy will support people with disabilities?
