Further information would be provided over the next 2 weeks hence the date to confirm all Research Groups extended to Sun 29 Jul 2012 B DAA produced several documents on Poverty and Health including 1 "Explanation of Absolute and Relative Poverty and How Calculated" by D A PLAYER St Andrews University 1994 This document states (P67) "Seebohm Rowntree (1871-1954) - his report and his definition of poverty in the most stringent terms has had enormous influence and forms the administrative basis around which the British post-war social security system was constructed. Much the same could be said about what happened in the USA. When Sir William BEVERIDEG was writing his famous Report, in 1942, on Social Insurance and Allied Services, Rowntree was one of his advisors and a member of a small sub-committee looking at the details on social security benefit levels" 2 "Riches to Die for" by David DONNISON "The Guardian Wed 27 Jul 1994 This document explained (p73) "In increasingly unequal societies, the more unemployment, the more homelessness, the more houses repossessed, the more poverty, the greater will be the sense of anxiety and insecurity among the population at large". "Meanwhile, if job opportunities, pension rights and health services appear to be crumbling, people feel that "there is further to fall and the risks of daily life are more worrying". C JNN had submitted a number of articles about eHealth including articles in the Weekend Australian 30 Jun 2012 - 01 Jul 2012 1 "How not to set up e-health" by Sue DUNLEVY and 2 "Sceptics wary of risks and inadequacies with PCEHR system" by Karen DEARNE D SGG provided a copy of the 8 Candidate eStandards accepted by the National eHealth Transition Authority [NEHTA] for software development in eHealth systems {Att A}. 7 of the "eStandards" are proprietary Standards owned by US software and hardware organisations which required "Health Information Exchange [HIE]" 3rd parties to exchange information from one standard to another E The meeting agreed that it appears that Health has perhaps the most significant impact on Wellbeing F PMA as a former resident of Lismore expressed an interest in "The Nimbian Goodtimes" Newspaper and the number of advertisers in that journal.

The essence of the report was that "Subjective Wellbeing Measures" clash with the "Market System" which does not acknowledge Fairness or Wellbeing. Hence the interest as to how Wellbeing will be measured An example is that the Mining Boom may provide jobs but if families have to move and leave their extended family network, friends, and social network how does that improve Individual as well as Family Wellbeing ? The Library Workgroup viewed the 12 Research Models identified in the HALE Index of Australia’s Wellbeing and reviewed the Canadian Index of Wellbeing [CIW], In Table 4 CIW has identified a series of Indicators under 7 Domains DOMAIN INDICATORS AUS DATA A Democratic Engagement 8 TBC B Community Vitality 11 C Education 8 D Environment 14 E Healthy Populations 10 F Leisure & Culture 8 G Living Standards 9 The Library Workgroup proposed to establish 4 Work Groups of 3 members.

The Workgroup evaluation criteria, possibly based on the CIW as the base Model, will be confirmed at the next meeting.
