Following the 2024/25 Victorian Budget, Mental Health Victoria calls on the Victorian Government to enhance its communication and transparency, and clearly outline its plan to deliver reform of the mental health and wellbeing system to maintain the good faith of the sector and the Victorian community.


“We welcome the fact that this Budget continues to invest heavily in supporting the mental health and wellbeing system to care for the community, including through applying the revenue raised from the Mental Health and Wellbeing Levy. However, substantial reforms recommended by the Royal Commission have been missed in this budget, raising concerns about the status of their progress” said Mental Health Victoria CEO, Marcelle Mogg.
