Constituency questions
Buninyong electorate
Buninyong electorate
Ms SETTLE (Buninyong) (11:55): (5812) My constituency question is for the Minister for Mental Health. I ask the minister: following the release of the final report from the Royal Commission into Victoria’s Mental Health System, can the minister provide an update of some of the investments that we can expect for the Ballarat region? The Andrews Labor government has committed to implementing every single recommendation from the Royal Commission into Victoria’s Mental Health System and has already invested a historic $868 million in mental health in the most recent Victorian state budget. Any additional investments will build on the wonderful work done so far in Ballarat, particularly around the hospital outreach post-suicidal engagement service.
