I again reiterate to members of the House that mental health and suicide are delicate areas and there are many factors that contribute in these circumstances. We all know that talking about suicide and talking about issues of mental health require sensitivity. Can I caution the House, before jumping to any unfounded conclusions. I say again, Services Australia runs a very large social network support for people, in times of crisis and vulnerability. I would encourage all members to point people who are experiencing difficulties to those services.
