Petition request

That the House of Representatives urge the Government to fund bigger mental health facilities in New Zealand.

Petition reason

I am putting forwards a petition for this issue due to what I believe is a lack of space in mental health facilities in Invercargill and across New Zealand. My experience is that I and other people have been turned away from mental health facilities and told to go back home at their lowest point in life.
