MENTAL HEALTH COMMISSION — SERVICE PROVIDER FUNDING
96. Hon DONNA FARAGHER to the Minister for Mental Health:
I
refer to the government's press statement dated 14 December 2020 titled
''McGowan Government delivers funding boost for community
services'' and, specifically, the $6 million allocated to the Mental
Health Commission for disbursement across eligible contracts. Will the minister
list the service providers who will have their contracts extended to 30 June
2022 by the Mental Health Commission and a breakdown of the funding allocated
to each?
Hon
STEPHEN DAWSON replied:
I thank Hon Donna Faragher for some
notice of the question.
The Mental Health Commission will be
notifying the eligible service providers of the 51 service agreements for the
once-off funding boost within the next month.
I have a list here, Madam President,
but I have noticed an error in it so I will check that error and I will provide
something at the end of question time. I will provide it to the member behind
the chair and I will provide it to the department tomorrow.
Hon DONNA FARAGHER: Just for
clarification, if I may, the minister said ''behind the chair''.
Does the minister intend to table that document?
Hon STEPHEN DAWSON: I will
table the document tomorrow. I will rectify the issue for tomorrow for the
chamber, but in the meantime, if I can provide something to the member behind
the chair, I will do that.
