Dear Mr. Anderson Business Plan for NSW Department of Health or another Health Agency to - I. implement a 21½ Months Pilot in NSW of a Youthful Exuberance Lifestyle Programme ("YELP") to achieve a Pilot Sample Critical Mass of 5,200 new Participants in 15 Recreational Exercise Activities presently provided by +900 existing LDREGs; and II. conduct a 10 Months Tenure Of Primary Research Programme (within the Pilot) in NSW to measure the Hypothesis' scope to materially reduce Fifteen Problems, which include the Taskforce's Three Public Health Risks, which presently costs Australia over $155 billion annually Scope for cash injection and modelling resource input for YELP from major Australian companies under a Public Private Partnership I refer to the enclosed letter to you dated 12 November 2007 which I posted to you - (i) with 2 CDs two weeks ago; and (ii) a week ago with a further copy of the CD, which I undertook to provide in my enclosed letter.
Each
CD contains over 600 files which collectively provide a +300 page
Business Plan for a
Youthful Exuberance
Lifestyle Programme. My letter to you dated 12 November
2007, the
Attachment and
Section Titles, summarise the Business Plan. By inserting the
CD into a CD drive, my enclosed letter opens providing over 3,500 URLs to

A
vital facet of my Business Plan is a
10 Months Tenure Of Primary Research Programme to quantify,
using
Return On YELP Capex Software, the
Hypothesis'
scope to materially reduce the
Fifteen Problems
by calculating the
Economic Return On YELP Capex. The Business Plan Developer is an early retiree Commonwealth Bank Infrastructure Banker with a lifetime in voluntary sports administration. The Business Plan Developer previously dealt with business associates from a few of the largest Australia companies (investment banks, law firms, infrastructure, 'et al') who - A. understand how to develop infrastructure finance projects from an initial business plan to financial close and ultimately practical completion and commencing the operations phase; and B. share the Business Plan Developer's passion for the benefits of regular rigorous, challenging, recreational exercise, amidst a LCCBSG which is the Hypothesis.
Should
NHMRC exhibit early interest in my Business Plan, I am confident of attracting
both cash injections and modelling input from some large Australian companies to
develop
Return On YELP Capex Software. These companies employ modellers expert in
creating base case financial models to measure economic return on equity and
Capex.
A
patent further benefit of accepting resource input from the private sector under
the structure of a
Public Private Partnership (PPP") is the encouragement the
senior execs of these companies would provide to their employees for YELP, which
would materially facilitate both the
10 Months Tenure Of Primary Research Programme and the
21½ Months Tenure Of Pilot. In my last role at Commonwealth Bank I worked on PPP's in "Social & Corporate Infrastructure". PPPs are favoured by government as generally private equity carries inter alia credit risk, construction risk and patronage risk during the concession period. A PPP for YELP would have different drivers and a different equity structure, because - A) the CEOs of major companies are invariably keen to - (I) demonstrably encourage their employees towards a healthier lifestyle, and (II) be associated with an explicit scratch and feel proactive healthy lifestyle programme with definitive Milestones and targets to create a more productive and cohesive Australia; and B) Government needs to retain policy and management control over health projects, incl YELP.
Consequently, I envisage that say up to a dozen major Section 17 "Budget for 21½ Months Tenure Of Pilot, including 10 Months Tenure Of Primary Research Programme" establishes that the development and rollout costs are exceedingly low due to - a) the enthusiasm of RECs who possess Eleven Sports Administration Attributes; and b) Twelve Low Cost Propagation Initiatives.
These costs would reduce under a
PPP structure where a
Health Agency on behalf of government, also held equity, and
importantly retained policy and management control under a trust deed with the
other equity partners.
As a former infrastructure banker
the Business Plan Developer views YELP as expending
Capex
in the
Pilot,
Propagation and
Product
Phases
on
Brownfield Infrastructure (Australian Interested Adults) to
retrofit many of them (in varying degrees from minor to major re-fits -
depending on each
Interested Adult's
state of disrepair) to strengthen them by re-igniting
Youthful Exuberance
(a trait that many adults can
relate to, but presently believe has passed them by) to improve - (a) their own productivity and QOL; and (b) the nation's bottom line productivity by reducing the costly Fifteen Problems. I welcome - I. your response letter, and e-mail, which confirms receipt of my letter dated 12 November 2007; and
II.
meeting with some of your delegates prior to Christmas, together with one of the
afore-mentioned corporate execs who has a passion for rigorous exercise in the
great outdoors, to discuss this
Business Plan. Yours sincerely
Phil Johnston |
