Read the sample research report

Youth mental health: the mandate and your next move

Key finding
The revised text replaces “may” with “must”. It would require the minister to establish national standards for access to youth mental health services. [1] [2]
Implications for providers
The proposed duty falls on the minister. For providers, the advocacy opportunity is to help shape standards around the access barriers they see in practice.
Three priorities for your submission
  1. Measurable wait-time targets, with public reporting on progress.
  2. Access standards that address rural and remote service gaps.
  3. Continuity of care when young people move into adult services.

1 · Earlier sample version

The Minister may establish national standards for access to youth mental health services.

2 · Revised sample version

The Minister must establish national standards for access to youth mental health services.
Compare bill versions

From “may” to “must”.

The Minister Removed: may Added: must establish national standards for access to youth mental health services.

One word changes the mandate: establishing the standards would become a duty.
