66952 (2024). Ingrid Leary to the Minister for Mental Health: Does the Minister agree with Dr Hiran Thabrew, Chair of Tu Te Akaaka Roa, that Nearly two-thirds of acute on-call mental health workers reported a significant decrease in staffing levels, while 90% noted an increase in demand for after-hours work; if so, what will he do, if anything, to address this?
