QAMH SUMMARYNational Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Agreement • March 23rd, 2022
The National Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Agreement stems from the 2021-22 Federal Budget. This budget included a $2.3 billion investment in mental health reforms as the Australian Government’s response to the 2020 Productivity Commission’s report, which detailed the mental health emergency facing the nation and the economic rationale for widescale reform. As many of the initiatives included in the budget involved both federal and state responsibilities a National Agreement was needed to further clarify how these reforms would be delivered and funded in the longer term.
