Abstract
The Second National Mental Health Plan, endorsed by Commonwealth, State and Territory governments on 30 July 1998, will pursue three key themes: (1) Promoting mental health, plus prevention of and early intervention in mental disorders, with a specific focus on depression; (2) continuing structural reform of mental health services, including better integration with general practice and the private psychiatric sector; and (3) implementing quality and outcome measures in mental health services, including evidence‐based practice.
