Mental Health Australia CEO Frank Quinlan said the confusion around whether the charity is ‘in or out’, of the ACT Government Long Service Scheme could have a devastating impact on the charity, and needs to be resolved urgently. “As a not-for-profit charity we stand to lose more than a quarter of a million dollars, and it just doesn’t make sense,” said Mr Quinlan. 2019-05-14T03:39:22Z
