"Myself, Chloe from the Greens, and Louisa Wall, from Labour at the time, set up NZ Parliament's first cross-party mental health group. And I really want to make some enduring changes that will go past the 3-year Parliamentary cycle."

omny.fmMinister Matt Doocey fronts on Government's plans for mental health - The Front PageIt’s no secret New Zealand is suffering a major mental health crisis.  Many people, including teens and children, often wait weeks to see someone when they seek help.  It's so dire, a survey of those at the coal face of the crisis describes a system that’s under pressure, under-resourced, and under-delivering for New Zealanders.  So, is there hope on the horizon with the coalition Government’s addition of a specialised mental health portfolio?  Today on The Front Page, Mental Health Minister Matt Doocey is with us to discuss what moves are being made to make sure help’s there when we need it.  Follow The Front Page on iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts. You can read more about this and other stories in the New Zealand Herald, online at nzherald.co.nz, or tune in to news bulletins across the NZME network.
