National mental health reform: less talk, more action

Re: “National mental health reform: less talk, more action”, by Sebastian Rosenberg, Ian B Hickie and John Mendoza, in the 16 February 2009 issue of the Journal (Med J Aust 2009; 190: 193-195). On page 193, in the second column, it was stated that “the federal government has only managed to spend $87.3 million of the $1.9 billion allocated . . . or 6.6% of the total to be spent”. The percentage should have been 4.6%, not 6.6%.

The error only appeared in the printed edition. The html and pdf versions of the article published in the eMJA were correct on publication.
