Support for the Royal Commission into Victoria’s Mental Health System

Support for the Royal Commission into Victoria’s Mental Health System

The Royal Commission into Victoria’s Mental Health System (Commission) was tasked with providing system-wide recommendations to shape Victoria’s mental health system now and into the future. The Royal Commission into Victoria’s Mental Health System delivered its final report on 3 February 2021 and it was tabled in Parliament by the Victorian Government on 2 March 2021. The work of the Commission has now concluded.

QCMHR provided ad-hoc expert advice and support on the use of the National Mental Health Service Planning Framework (NMHSPF) tool to:

  • inform the Royal Commission into Victoria’s Mental Health System’s work,
  • peer review NMHSPF estimates derived by the Commission, and
  • provide feedback on interpretation or reporting issues arising.

The NMHSPF is a needs-based planning tool designed to help plan, coordinate and resource mental health services to meet population needs. Its development has been funded by the Australian Government Department of Health with contributions from all state and territory governments.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF COUNTRY

The Queensland Centre for Mental Health Research (QCMHR) acknowledges the Jagera, Yuggera, Ugarapul and Turrbal people as the Traditional Owners of the land on which QCMHR operates and their continuing connections to land, waters and community. We pay our respects to their Elders, past and present and stand together with all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

RECOGNITION OF LIVED EXPERIENCE

We acknowledge people in our communities with lived experience of mental health, drug and alcohol concerns and those who care for them. We respect and value their generous contributions to our research.
