National mental health policy
This policy, which preceded the National mental health policy 2008, was a joint statement by the health ministers of the Commonwealth, states and territories of Australia. Its intention was to set a clear direction for future development of mental health services in Australia so that appropriate services would be accessible to all Australians with mental health problems or mental disorders.
