Description: The New South Wales government has announced a significant increase in mental health funding, allocating over $111 million in this month’s budget. This decision comes in the wake of the fatal Bondi attack in April, which brought to light several deficiencies in the current system. The additional funding is set to expand community mental health teams throughout the state, including the creation of extra positions to better serve the community’s needs. Reporter Chantelle Al-Khouri will provide further details on how this funding will be implemented and its expected impact.
