69741 (2024). Ingrid Leary to the Minister for Mental Health: Does the Minister agree with Sarah Dalton, executive director of the senior doctors’ union (ASMS), that the locum spend of more than $25m for psychiatry specialities in 2023, matches up with the extent of vacancies in psychiatry; if so, what, if anything, will he do to address this?

Hon Matt Doocey: I refer the member to written question 66333 (2024)
