to move:
That this House:
- (1)
- notes that:
- (a)
- mental illness afflicts more Australians than almost all other health disorders, only ranking behind cancer and heart disease in prevalence;
- (b)
- forty-five per cent of the nation’s population will experience a mental health disorder at some point in life;
- (c)
- younger Australians—those between 16 and 24—bear the brunt of mental illness, with prevalence of problems declining with age;
- (d)
- with early and targeted treatment, many people can overcome mental illness or lower the incidence of progression or relapse;
- (e)
- expansion of the headspace and Early Psychosis Prevention Intervention Centres (EPPIC) models could help an estimated 200 000 young Australians, and in doing so, free-up existing services for others with mental illnesses whilst alleviating pressures on public hospitals and emergency departments; and
- (f)
- the Government has moved to cut services in mental healthcare;
- (2)
- requires the Government to:
- (a)
- expand the number of headspace centres to a minimum of 90 nationally;
- (b)
- establish a national network of 20 EPPIC centres;
- (c)
- provide an additional 800 beds for mental health, associated with the EPPIC centres;
- (d)
- appropriate funds necessary to provide these critical steps to expanding mental health treatment facilities; and
- (e)
- immediately provide additional funds for existing headspace centres; and
- (3)
- sends a message to the Senate acquainting it of this resolution and requesting that it concur.
