A E-MAILS RECEIVED
a No emails were received this week
b Each web-page now has a hit counter to provide Sponsors with management
metrics to gauge the effectiveness of Sponsorship
B PROGRESS REVIEW INDEX OF WELLBEING [IoW] WEB-SITES
a On Sun (U) 05 Aug 2012 THD proposed to review contents of Domains as
1 Herald-Age Lateral Index [HALE] Index of Australian Wellbeing
[IAW]- 7 Domains
2 Canadian Index of Wellbeing [CIW] - 8 Domains
3 Bhutan "Gross National Happiness [GNH]" - 9 Domains
b THD said it was interesting to Note that the Bhutan Website was On-line
yet both the Canadian Index of Wellbeing [CIW] and the HALE Index of
Australian Wellbeing [IAW] were both PDF files that had to be downloaded
c In addition the Bhutan Website was an Open-Source Website using .php
extensions with codes for 4,294 Villages in 206 Area Codes, 31 different
Land Codes and 47 National Assembly Constituencies for the 708,265
population(2011 Census)
d More significantly both the "Canadian CIW" Report and the "Bhutan GHN"
website had distinct Domain Categories whereas the Lateral Economics
HALE-IAW Report had Part 1 - Part 5 Categories
e The meeting agreed that this is an important issue to understand how
the Content of the Domains varies particularly as the Bhutan "Gross
National Happiness [GNH]" website appears to have 9 Domains on its
main Website with links to other websites:
1 Psychological well-being
2 Standard of Living and Happiness
3 Good Governance and Gross National Happiness
4 Health
5 Education
6 Community Vitality
7 Cultural Diversity and Resilience
8 Time Use and Happiness
9 Ecological Diversity and Resilience
f The Bhutan "Gross National Happiness [GNH]" web-site and surveys
were funded United Nations Development Programme [UNDP] while
"the International Development Research Centre (IDRC), Canada
funded the analysis of the survey data and the printing of
this book" (ref Acknowledgments Page i Short-GNH-Index-Final.pdf).
g The Bhutan "Gross National Happiness [GNH] Index is a single number
index developed from 33 indicators categorized under nine domains.
h The GNH Index is constructed based upon a robust multidimensional
methodology known as the Alkire-Foster method (Click Here for More).
i The Bhutan GNH web-site links to the "UNDP Governance Assessment
Portal [GAP]" which has 16 Areas of Governance including E-Governance
j The excellent Bhutan Portal which appears to be mainly Online with few
PDF Downloads mainly forms, explains that "Bhutan, a little Himalayan
Kingdom in the Eastern Himalayas, is a fairy tale land" with a
population of 708,265 (2011) living in an Area of 38,394 sq km
C EDUCATION SUB-COMMITTEE FOR "INDEX OF WELLBEING" [SAN-IoW EduCmt]
a The meeting reviewed Part 5 of the HALE-IAW Report "Weighting
the Index and Engaging the Public - contributions to improving
the index"
b SGG suggested that Part 5 indicated that there may be funding
for Engaging the Public and proposed that an Education Sub-Committee
was formed with DAA possibly as the Chair.
c The remit of the SAN-IoW EduCmt could be to review content for
Secondary, Tertiary and Public Education into the "Index of Wellbeing"
Indicators
d Feedback for this Index of Wellbeing Education Sub-Committee
is requested

b SGG drafted an email that:
1 provided links to the Formation of the Sustainability Action
Network [SAN] to support the Mosman the 7 Sustainability Domains
identified by the Mosman Council Sustainability Action Group [SAG]
in 2007
2 explained in 2008 3 members of SAN namely Mike CLEAR, Pim RAVESTIJN
and Stephen GOULD were nominated to contest the Mosman Council Local
Government Election as there were concerns that the Council would
not answer questions on Sustainability Issues
3 outlined how prior to the Election, Peter AXTENS LLB (Retired) passed
the exam to become the Official Agent of the Sustainability Action
Network [SAN]
c The SAN Management Committee approved the email for future use about
enquiries about the Sustainability Action Network [SAN]
B REVIEW COPYRIGHT ISSUES FOR PROJECT PARTICIPANTS
a PMA proposed that the Copyright Issue be promoted for contacts to
review as the proposal is for each participant to establish a Family
Trust for Intellectual Property Royalty [IPR] receipts
b PMA suggested that a Trust Law Solicitor should be contacted to discuss
the Family Trust Issues
c SGG said that each web page would have a hit meter to record each week
how many hits were received on each web-page so sponsor could ascertain
how effective their sponsorship had been.
C INDEX OF WELLBEING - ONLINE NOT PDF DOWNLOADS
a THD suggested that perhaps the Sustainability Action Network [SAN] should
review the other Online Wellbeing websites as there appears to some
discrepancies between the different Domain Indicators
b THD said he had reviewed 3 Index of Wellbeing web-sites namely:
1 Herald-Age Lateral Index [HALE] Index of Australian Wellbeing [IAW]-7 Domains
2 Canadian Index of Wellbeing [CIW] - 8 Domains
3 Bhutan "Gross National Happiness [GNH]" - 9 Domains
c THD proposed that the Online GNH Site is reviewed next and that SAN consider
how measurement of the different Indicators of each Domain can be monitored

FEEDBACK RECEIVED
A E-MAILS RECEIVED
a PMA tabled a "Thank you email" about the On-line "Democratic Engagement"
Domain[DED] of the Canadian Index of Wellbeing [CIW] from Subhash KAMATH
of the Old Hamptonians in the UK
b SGG said he had received a number of requests to postpone "Call for
Volunteers to review Wellbeing" Websites until after the Olympics
c Meeting agreed to postpone until 25 Aug 2012
B PROPOSED CHANGES TO OPERATIONS
a THD as the Information Research Officer [IRO] of the Mosman Group
[RAA, THD, SGG] reviewing the Group 1 Wellbeing websites, proposed:
1 separate Web-pages for each
A:"Summary",
B:"Trends",
C:"Highlights",
D:"Conclusions" and
E:"Ideas for Positive Change" information
b The Meeting agreed to trial separate web-pages as it reduced the
number of pages to be printed as well as increasing the sponsorship
impact.
c A Hit Count would be placed on each page for "Sponsorship Returns"
records
2 Web-links were researched for "Source" Information for the
Assessment of Wellbeing so people could review the Source
documents On-line:
d THD proposed this so SAN Members in future could monitor the
changes in Wellbeing across all 8 Domains of the "Canadian
Index of Wellbeing [CIW]" and how that compared with the HALE
"Index of Australian Wellbeing [IAW]".
e The Meeting agreed that would be very useful.
(This is important because "Health" was a key Domain of Wellbeing
and the ABC had just reported that Surgery Waiting Times for
Children had increased by 30% over the last 12 months)
f Currently the Herald/Age Lateral Economics [HALE] Australian
Index of Wellbeing [IAW] only catered for 7 Domains.
g HALE-IAW did not include the "Time Use Domain [TUD]"
C SPONSORSHIP FROM SMSF
a SGG proposed that a Source of On-line Index of Australian Wellbeing
[IAW] Sponsorship could be "Self-Managed Superannuation Funds [SMSF] "
b SMSF encouraged to diversify to obtain revenue from different
investment sources.
c According to the e.Superfund web-site there are PDF Training Modules
on a number of investment options including:
1 Trading-Shares,
2 Trading-Contracts for Difference [CFD],
3 Trading-Options,
4 Trading-Warrants,
5 Trading-Foreign Exchange [FX],
6 Trading-Metals,
7 Trading-Education and
8 Property.
d The new "Index of Australian Wellbeing [IAW]" and "Educating
People to Understand Wellbeing" could be a new Investment
Source for SMSF with the revenue as a percentage of the
new-business generated from the Web Sponsorship pages
e The Meeting proposed that SGG prepare a Portfolio for discussion
with a number of Self-Managed Super Fund [SMSF] Brokers

FEEDBACK RECEIVED
A Expressions of Interest had been received for the Research Program into the
12 On-line Economic Models of Wellbeing.
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.
Some advertisers may be interested in sponsoring the HALE-IAW review web-site
G PMA proposed that the Research Fee for organisations could be
1 12- months free advertising as Sponsors on 5 pages of the SAN "HALE-IAW"
Review web-site
2 Long-term Royalties from future Sponsors for the Research information
provided
3 An invitation to co-odinate local meetings to explain the new
Wellbeing Economic Models as a prelude to the local decentralised
co-generation and tri-generation Sustainability Model developed by
Woking Council and presented by Alan JONES MBE to Sydney 22 Jul 2008

15:00 The meeting started at 15:00 at Mosman Library as Library closes at 16:00
DAA submitted a report that reviewed the 10 Boxes, 11 Figures and 18 tables.
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.
Each Workgroup would evaluate 3 Models each over 4 week – one 1 week and
the final week to submit as report.
The Workgroup evaluation criteria, possibly based on the CIW as the base Model,
will be confirmed at the next meeting.
Notice of the call for Workgroup Volunteers within 3 wks
16:40 DAA said as according to “Table 4: Comparison of Indicators used in CIW
and Australian Data”, the Australian Data in the HALE –IAW was heavily
dependent on the Australian Bureau of Statistics [ABS] it would be worth
notifying people of the relevant ABS Reports and Location of ABS
16:45 The meeting agreed:
A To use the CIW Model as the template for Wellbeing to understand how
Wellbeing will be measured
B To establish Workgroups to research the other 12 Models
C To confirm the Model Evaluation Criteria at the next meeting

Hi - here is the draft record of the Inaugural meeting A1 of SAN Policies and
Practices Management Committee to review the Herald/Age Lateral Economics
[HALE] Index of Australian Wellbeing.
We are very fortunate that Don ARCHBOLD as a Lecturer in Economics in a
number of Countries including Canada, UK and Australia at several Schools
and Universities was able to attend the initial meeting and provide the
framework for the review of the HALE Index of Australian Wellbeing [HALE-IAW].
Don expressed great interest in the Canadian Index of Wellbeing [CIW]
which will be reviewed along with other Web-site Models at the next meeting
The meeting agreed that it is very appropriate if there were people with the
following expertise participating in this eCommittee
A Statistics
B Sociology
C Politics
D Demography
E Law
The new Lateral Economic Model appears to cover other issues like
1 Health
2 Employment
3 Education
4 Climate Change
5 Sustainability
6 Land Assets
The format for participating in an eCommittee can be reviewed on
other Special Interest Groups
NEXT STEPS
Please email me if you are interested in participating in the Review
of the HALE Index of Australian Wellbeing

16:30 PMA opened meeting by welcoming attendees and explaining
the role of SAN HALE Review Management Committee to:
1 Establish timetable and framework to review HALE Index Wellbeing
2 Evaluate other Model of Wellbeing
3 Place HALE Index on Website similar to other Models on Websites
16:45 DAA as the first Lecturer in Economics at Macquarie University in 1964 explained
framework for Economics
There are 3 Models
1 Market System - started as a Barter System until Money invented to
enable a price to be established by a Market for every commodity
2 Planned Economy - The State makes all the decisions about production
3 Mixed Economy - a mixture of both where the State and Business work
together to provide produce and jobs for as many as possible
The Government influences the distribution of Wealth as the "Market System has
no concept of Fairness"
Concerns that Powerful People can have undue Influence on Market Pricing
particularly through Cartels
Discussions on Market Systems such as
1 Gold (Rothschilds as Permanent Chair of the 5 member London
Bullions Market Association [LBMA] set Gold Price twice-a-day
at New Court in London),
2 Silver (Bunker Hunts cornered Silver Market in 1979),
3 Oil - Standard Oil broken up by US Government in 1911 and
4 Telephone - the breakup of AT & T by US Government in 1974
17:15 DAA then explained the issues involved with Economics
A Statistics
B Sociology
C Politics
D Demography
E Law
The new Lateral Economic Model appears to cover other issues like
1 Health
2 Employment
3 Education
4 Climate Change
5 Sustainability
