The work comes under the umbrella of the Alcohol Epidemiology Project and is commissioned by the Victorian Department of Health. The primary aim of this project has been to establish key indicators of alcohol consumption and related harm within the Victorian community for the purpose of informing policy formulation, resource allocation, service planning and service monitoring. To date a number of indicators have been established at a regional and local community level. A detailed description of the methodology that has been developed within this project, along with the main findings, has been provided in a series of reports (Dietze et al., 1999, Laslett et al., 1996, Rumbold et al., 1997, Rumbold et al., 1998a). Following a review of The Victorian alcohol statistics series, this report presents findings over time and across seven indicators of harm for all LGAs and regions. Future editions of this report will update these data tables to provide continuity and consistency over time, providing a valuable resource to policymakers and planners and other interested parties. In addition, where possible, new indicators will be introduced in subsequent years. Turning Point Population Health Research Program The Population Health Research Program is a team of researchers with a background in alcohol and drug research, social sciences, statistics and public health. The program has established a number of core datasets relating to the epidemiology of alcohol and other drug use and related harms within the Victorian community. These include survey data, data concerning alcohol sales, hospital admissions, deaths, road crashes, crime, drug-related ambulance attendances and calls to DirectLine (the state-wide 24-hour alcohol and drug telephone counselling and referral service). i LIST OF TABLES Table 2.1 High alcohol hours used in the selection of alcohol-related road crash cases in metropolitan and non-metropolitan areas

  • 7.5. Final Outcomes of 2020 General Valuation
    Council Meeting Agenda 24/08/2020 7.5 Final outcomes of 2020 General Valuation Abstract This report provides detailed information in relation to the 2020 general valuation of all rateable property and recommends a Council resolution to receive the 1 January 2020 General Valuation in accordance with section 7AF of the Valuation of Land Act 1960. The overall movement in property valuations is as follows: Site Value Capital Improved Net Annual Value Value 2019 Valuations $82,606,592,900 $112,931,834,000 $5,713,810,200 2020 Valuations $86,992,773,300 $116,769,664,000 $5,904,236,100 Change $4,386,180,400 $3,837,830,000 $190,425,800 % Difference 5.31% 3.40% 3.33% The level of value date is 1 January 2020 and the new valuation came into effect from 1 July 2020 and is being used for apportioning rates for the 2020/21 financial year. The general valuation impacts the distribution of rating liability across the municipality. It does not provide Council with any additional revenue. The distribution of rates is affected each general valuation by the movement in the various property classes. The important point from an equity consideration is that all properties must be valued at a common date (i.e. 1 January 2020), so that all are affected by the same market. Large shifts in an individual property’s rate liability only occurs when there are large movements either in the value of a property category (e.g. residential, office, shops, industrial) or the value of certain locations, which are outside the general movements in value across all categories or locations.

  • Reform of the Psychiatric Disability Rehabilitation and Support Services Program
    Mental Health Community Support Services June 2014 Fact Sheet 2: Information for Existing Clients Fact Sheet: Information for Existing Clients This fact sheet provides information for current clients of mental health community support services provided under the Victorian Psychiatric Disability Rehabilitation and Support Services (PDRSS) program. It includes information about the changes that will happen to these services over the next few months, when these changes will occur and how the changes might affect you. As part of these changes the Victorian Government will also change the name of the PDRSS program to Mental Health Community Support Services (MHCSS) program from August 2014. This change is about supporting you. The changes will ensure access to mental health community support services is fair and equitable by ensuring people most disabled by their mental health condition do not miss out on the support they need. The reforms will make it easier for new and returning consumers and carers to get help no matter where they live. This will be achieved by establishing a centralised intake point for all referrals in each local area. A fact sheet explaining how the new intake assessment system will work will be made available shortly. We also know you want services to be of a consistent quality and designed around your individual needs and preferences. This is why we are introducing Individualised Client Support Packages. They will replace standard, moderate and intensive Home Based Outreach Services, Day Programs, Care Coordination, Aged Intensive Program and Special Client Packages from 1 August 2014. Your support package will help you to develop the life skills needed to live well in the community and to manage your mental illness.
