46292 (2024). Hon Willow-Jean Prime to the Minister for Children: How many, if any, senior psychologists are working with the participants on the pilot military-style academies, and if any, what are their expected contact hours with participants?

Hon Karen Chhour: I am advised the Military-style Academy Pilot has one fulltime onsite senior psychologist who will facilitate daily group-based intervention sessions with the young people as well as regular and on-going individual intervention based on needs identified in individual plans. The total contact hours for each young person will vary depending on their needs.
