17094 (2025). Ingrid Leary to the Minister for Mental Health: Is information available on whether people accessing the early intervention Access and Choice programme, are requiring more advanced support post-programme; if not, why not?

Hon Matt Doocey: I am advised that there is limited information available at this stage, however, the Mental Health and Wellbeing Commission Access and Choice programme monitoring report noted an increase in access to early intervention services through the Access and Choice programme is possibly reducing referrals to secondary specialist services and supporting more appropriate referrals.
