Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Agreement Review
What we’ve been asked to look at
The Productivity Commission (PC) has been asked by the Australian Government to conduct the final review of the National Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Agreement.
The review will assess the impact of programs delivered under the Agreement and make recommendations for the Agreement that aim to enhance the effectiveness, accessibility, affordability and safety of the mental health and suicide prevention system.
The PC is not in a position to provide advice or make recommendations on individual circumstances. Rather, our focus is on the broad issues raised in response to the inquiry terms of reference.
