The government is not in a position to table the National Drug and Alcohol Clinical Care and Prevention project model and technical report in the Senate as they were commissioned by the COAG Ministerial Council on Drug Strategy, which has now been replaced by the Ministerial Drug and Alcohol Forum. The Minister for Health will write to all of the relevant state and territory ministers on the forum, seeking their consent to release the model. State and territory governments need to be consulted on this matter as it was determined by the previous committee not to release the model.

The Commonwealth government, as part of the National Ice Action Strategy, has provided an additional $241 million for increased drug and alcohol services, with the Commonwealth combined investment in drug and alcohol programs of $685 million.

Question agreed to.
