For a considerable time, HSU members have been involved in discussions around NNSWLHD’s proposal to create a Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service (CAMHS).  

During the process, your Union has advocated for a number of actions to be undertaken. Earlier this week, the HSU placed the process into dispute because delegates had requested a number of documents that had not been provided.  

The HSU has now received the requested draft documents, which you can view at the links below.  

• Proposed structure
• Steering Committee Terms of Reference
• Consultative Committee minutes 19 August 2021
• Consultative Committee minutes 27 August 2021
• Draft position description, Senior Clinical Psychologist/Clinical Lead

Members are encouraged to read the documents and to provide feedback via email [E-Mail not displayed] by 15 December.  All feedback will be collated and a response provided to the disputes committee meeting when it is convened. 

Know someone who isn’t an HSU member? Tell them to join today and have a say! New members can join at www.hsu.asn.au/join or call 1300 478 679. 

In unity, 

Gerard Hayes
