The region has a population of over 53,000 people. This includes 2,065 Aboriginal people making up approximately 3-4 per cent of the population and the region is culturally diverse with people from 74 different countries living locally. Mildura is the major service centre for towns and communities in our region including those across the border into New South Wales. In comparing our Local Government Area’s (LGA’s) level of overall social advantage and disadvantage compared to all 79 LGAs in 2015, Mildura is ranked fifth highest in regards to disadvantage. 2 4 of 32 LC LSIC Inquiry into Homelessness Submission 144 Background – Partnerships Mildura Rural City Council have partnered with Hands Up Mallee and local organisations who deliver homelessness services in the development of this submission, to provide a comprehensive overall picture of the state of homelessness in the Mildura region. The organisations involved in this submission process were: Action Team (Homeless Service providers) . Mildura Rural City Council (lead) . Hands Up Mallee (secondary lead) . Mallee Accommodation and Support Service (MASP) . Haven Home Safe . Mallee District Aboriginal Services (MDAS) . Department of Health and Human Services – Housing . Mallee Sexual Assault Unit- Mallee Domestic Violence Service (MSAU-MDVS) Services We Consulted With (Organisations working with homeless clients) . Mildura Base Hospital – Mental Health Unit . Sunraysia Community Health Services . Sunraysia Mallee Ethnic Communities Council (SMECC) . Job Active Networks Consultation has been limited to the timeframe available to prepare this submission. Other organisations such as Victoria Police, Department of Justice and Regulation, Headspace, Mallee Family Care and Legal Aid could have been included to gain an even deeper understanding of the impacts of homelessness on our community and the services. Consultation could also have been undertaken in the disability housing space including conversations with Sunraysia Residential Services and The Christie Centre. A critical component of consultation moving forward would be speaking to our local community including those with lived experience of homelessness and regrettably the timeline did not allow us to include their voice in this submission. We would invite the Parliamentary enquiry to visit Mildura to hear from our community and local organisations and understand further the issues impacting our unique community in regards to homelessness. 3 5 of 32 LC LSIC Inquiry into Homelessness Submission 144 Our Data General Community Data relating to homelessness Indicator Mildura LGA Victoria Median weekly household income $1,064 $1,419 Young people aged 17-24 years in fulltime study and/or work 57.1% 71.8% Young people aged 16 to 24 receiving an unemployment 7.3% 2.7% benefit Unemployment rate 7.3% 6.6% Jobless families with children aged less than 15 years*, 2011 20.2% 12.3% People on long-term unemployment benefits 8.0% 4.1% (longer than 6 months) Children in low income, welfare-dependent families 14.8% 9.5% Households with housing costs that represent 30 per cent or 10.6% 10.4% more of household gross income Low income households (households in bottom 40% of 30.8% 27.2% income distribution) with rental stress Family violence incidents reported to police (rate per 100,000 2,568.1 1,129.2 population) Family violence incidents where children were present (rate 823.8 387.6 per 100,000 population) Children subject to child protection orders 15.0 5.2 (per 1,000 children aged 0–17 years) Proportion of children at school entry whose parents report 12.4% 11.0% high levels of family stress in the past month, 2014 Registered mental health clients (rate per 1,000 population) 24.0 11.9 Social housing as a percentage of total dwellings Mildura 6.0% Victoria 3.8% Ranked 13th Source: The State of Mildura Report 2018 https://www.mildura.vic.gov.au/Council/Major-Projects/State-of-Mildura- Report-2018 4 6 of 32 LC LSIC Inquiry into Homelessness Submission 144 Our Local Rental Data To understand the local real estate picture, this data is taken from the Real Estate Institute of Victoria’s (REIV) website which lists the median data for September 2019 Quarter for Mildura. Median Sale Price Median Rent per week Units $238,000 $240 Houses $310,000 $320 Source https://reiv.com.au/market-insights/suburb/mildura Mildura’s Rental Vacancy Rate New figures released by the Real Estate Institute of Victoria (REIV) have revealed that Mildura now has the lowest vacancy rates in the whole of Victoria. The number of vacant properties was 0.7 per cent in May, compared to 3.1 per cent the same time last year. According to the REIV, the vacancy rate needs to be at least three percent to present a healthy market, ensuring there is enough supply to meet the demand. We clearly therefore do not have a healthy rental market. 5 7 of 32 LC LSIC Inquiry into Homelessness Submission 144 The Mildura Regions Homelessness Data Story Community Wide Homelessness Data The Council to Homeless Person’s undertook an analysis on ABS data for the Mildura region and found the following; - 255 people are experiencing homelessness in this electorate (however this number needs to be investigated further after seeing presentation data from local organisations and DHHS data) - Homelessness affects 40 per 10,000 compared to an average of 27 people per 10,000 for regional Victoria - Mildura has the fourth highest level of homelessness in regional Victoria - 47 per cent are male and 53 per cent are female 6 8 of 32 LC LSIC Inquiry into Homelessness Submission 144 The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) provides quarterly Local Area Service Network (LASN) data.

Harvey Stern*1, John Cornall-Reilly1, Patrizia McBride1, and Adrian Fitzgerald2 1Bureau of Meteorology, Australia 2La Trobe University, Australia 1. INTRODUCTION 2. ANALYSIS 1.1 Newspaper headline: “The hot weather. 2.1 Location Victorian record broken.” Mildura (Figure 2) is located on the Murray River in Melbourne’s The Argus newspaper of Saturday 6th a mostly flat region of NW Victoria, and the official January 1906 headlined: The hot weather. Victorian Mildura Post Office weather station opened in record broken. Mildura, 123 degrees. It reported January 1889 (Figure 2). that “yesterday was the continuation of a period of fierce heat, of which Mr Baracchi (Government Astronomer of Victoria 1900-1915) will not yet prophesy the end … (and that) the outlook for today is worse than the memory of yesterday. Yesterday was hot; today will probably be hotter.” It was hotter - The Mildura Cultivator of Saturday 13th January 1906 reported a top temperature to 9am 7th January of 123.5°F (50.8°C). Figure 2 Location of Mildura Source: http://www.bom.gov.au Deniliquin (Figure 3) is located several hundred km to the ESE of Mildura in a mostly flat region of southern New South Wales.

Water entitlements (approximate) • Surface Water Long-term Cap -700 GL. • Victorian high reliability water shares 481 GL NSW High Security - 190 GLiii , NSW General security — 75 GLiv • Groundwater entitlements - negligible. 4. Major enterprises –Major enterprises for the Nyah to Border region include wine grapes, citrus, table grapes, almonds, dried fruit, and vegetables. 5. Government buyback- The Commonwealth Government buyback cannot be separated out for the Nyah to Border region as it is part of greater Murray valley buyback program. 6. Water dependence — Very high capital investment on-farm and off-farm makes the regional economy highly water dependent. 7. Current status • Nyah to Border’s regional economy of around $3 billionv has a high dependence on irrigation, with wineries, packing sheds and other food processing reliant on a consistent supply of irrigated crops.

  • Sustainable Diversion Limit Adjustment
    Sustainable Diversion Limit Adjustment Phase 2 Assessment Supply Measure Business Case: Nyah Floodplain Management Project i Supply Measure Business Case: Wallpolla Island Disclaimer This business case is one of nine Victorian environmental works projects. It was developed over two years ago and submitted for assessment in early 2015 by the Sustainable Diversion Limit Adjustment Assessment Committee (SDLAAC) in accordance with the inter-jurisdictional governance procedures that pertain to the Murray Darling Basin Plan. This business case relies on assumptions, estimates and other variables that were considered true, accurate and the best available information at the time of development. As a result of queries raised during the SDLAAC assessment process, there have been changes to certain elements of some projects, including engineering designs, methods of water supply and future operation. These details have not been incorporated or encapsulated in this or any of the other eight business cases relevant to the Sustainable Diversion Limit Adjustment Mechanism within the Murray Darling Basin Plan. There has, however, been no material changes to the environmental objectives and outcomes proposed to be achieved through these projects. All nine projects will be revisited for final development once Commonwealth funding is made available. The detailed cost estimates and other commercial-in-confidence information that originally formed part of this and the other eight business cases have been deliberately omitted from this version of the document. This is in recognition that this detail is no longer relevant given the time that has passed since these business cases were originally developed, new delivery methods are applicable in some cases and to ensure that value for money is achieved when these projects are issued for tender.

    DROPPING OFF THE EDGE 2015 Moe 30 October 2015 Julie Prideaux, ED Advocacy and Strategic Comms Jesuit Social Services Andrew Yule, GM Strategic Comms Jesuit Social Services Adrian Beavis – Report co-author OUTLINE OF TODAY’S PROGRAM • History of this report • Overview of key findings • Discussion • Examples from other communities • Our advocacy position • LUNCH ABOUT OUR ORGANISATIONS Jesuit Social Services We work to build a just society where all people can live to their full potential - by partnering with community to support those most in need and working to change policies, practices, ideas and values that perpetuate inequality, prejudice and exclusion. Catholic Social Services Australia We represent a national network of 59 Catholic social service organisations that provide direct support to more than one million Australians each year. We develop social welfare policies, programs and other strategic responses that work towards the economic, social and spiritual well-being of the Australian community. WHY WE COMMISSIONED THIS RESEARCH • The 2007 Dropping off the Edge Report (and 1999, 2004) led to Governments committing to a place based approach and the establishment of the National Social Inclusion Board. • We received many requests for updating the data to provide a better evidence base. • We cannot and should not turn away from the challenge of persistent and entrenched disadvantage. • We hold hope that the young people in these communities will have a better outlook and life opportunities. Findings from the research Adrian Beavis GENERAL PERSPECTIVE • Where an accumulation of problems makes a serious impact upon the wellbeing of residents of a disadvantaged area, locality-specific measures may be needed to strengthen the community and supplement general social policy.
