Recommendation 28
28
Retain the Mental Health Investment Standard and legislate it as a statutory requirement.
Recommendation
We recommend the Mental Health Investment Standard be retained beyond 2025–26. The Government should commit to the Standard by the end of this calendar year to give systems greater certainty. Then, the Government should legislate to make the Standard a statutory requirement, clearly defining its scope, measures for evaluation and accountability for systems in meeting it. (Recommendation, Paragraph 185)
