QuestionView source ↗

I refer to the seven people living in the South West with mental illness identified to be part of the Individualised Community Living Strategy in 2011–12, and I ask —
(1) Will these seven people receive support under the strategy to live independently for the rest of their lives?
(2) How many, if any, additional people living in the South West with mental illness have been/will be supported under this strategy in 2012–13?

(1) Each person is funded on an annual basis according to an Individual Plan, which is developed in conjunction with the person, their family and supporters and their community managed support organisation. Funding is available each year based on the plan, for as long as the supports are required.
(2) Seven people received support through the Individualised Community Living strategy in 2011-12. Additional people to be supported through growth funding for 2012-13 are still to be determined.
