Submission into improving access to early childhood health and development checks

The Legislative Assembly Committee on Community Service’s inquiry is considering barriers that affect parents' access to early childhood health and development checks that track their child's progress against developmental milestones, and changes to address gaps in outcomes for vulnerable children.

The Committee is also looking at recruitment and retention of health professionals to address workforce shortages, and funding for early intervention programs and screening to ensure children are given support for developmental issues.

ACYP made a written submission on 11 March 2024.
