Homelessness Alliances

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (14:34): Supplementary: is the minister saying that she is implementing the recommendation to stand up 100 crisis beds in the metro area? And if she is not saying that, why not?

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (14:34): We have a model which I think reflects that we were onto this before the Deputy Leader of the Opposition. In fact, I think it is something I have spoken about here before many times about how having mental health incorporated into a homelessness services model is going to assist people to connect those services.

Whether it is a particular number that the honourable member wishes to nominate or whether it is the entire service system, which is many, many beds that don't necessarily have a label attached to them—but it's more about that the person who is in a particular bed at that particular point in time receives the services that they need.
