AnswerView source ↗
I thank the member for the question.
(1)–(2)
The answer is yes; of course there are acute mental health services provided to
non-government organisations by the Mental Health Commission throughout the
lower south west. I have provided the member previously with two pages of
information about the types, number and range of services that they provide,
and also the level of funding that they get.
I do not have that information at
my fingertips, but I do have the answer to the member's previous
question that precisely covers all that information. However, I would have to
go through my papers to find that. In preparation for what I imagine the member
wants to raise in members' statements, I have that information with me
in Parliament. I have provided the information to the member fully detailing
the types of services, the number of non-government organisations and the
funding that they get.
The PRESIDENT : The leaders get precedence to some extent;
so, Deputy Leader of the Opposition.
