Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service

Mr MARSHALL (Dunstan—Leader of the Opposition) (14:42): Is the minister aware of the commitment of the former minister in relation to the Coroner's report into Michaela Mundy?

Mr Knoll: Obviously buying a new shovel at Bunnings.

The SPEAKER: The member for Schubert is warned.

The Hon. L.A. VLAHOS (Taylor—Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse) (14:42): If the member opposite is referring to the CAMHS review, it is ongoing. The Gruner review began in 2014, and an independent review of CAMHS has been making recommendations about the review and the improvements that could be made to the service. Many of these have already been implemented. We have taken a great deal of public consultation in the process of doing that to develop a model that redistributes the services currently at Enfield to a number of options on the table, but no decisions have been made at this stage.

What we need to do is make sure that the people who are most vulnerable and frail in youth and mental health services receive the resources they need, particularly for children at our most vulnerable end of the spectrum. At this point, we are still working through some public consultations in this space, particularly around speech pathologists, but that consultation is ongoing.
