Dear Dr. Moodie

 

 

 

 

The Business Plan Developer:

1.          has amended his Two National Preventive Health Research Programmes to accord with Taskforce's report dated 30 June 2009 by assigning Sole Voting Rights to the National Prevention Agency's  Board of Governance which the Five SPVs would report to, thereby enabling the 16 Months Tenure Of Preparatory Research Programme within 21½ Months Tenure Of Pilot under YELP to launch on 13 Aug 2011, or afterwards -

              *          implement 'learning by doing'; and

              *          achieve by end-2016,  165,000 fitter, stronger Australian  Interested Adults better able to work (from 2023) to 67 pension age

2.          seeks a meeting with a member(s) of the Taskforce or a member(s) of the NPA's  Board of Governance, or both, to discuss -

             a)         YELP's capacity to reduce the >$155 million annual cost of Fifteen Problems which the Taskforce's Three Public Health Risks dominate, with a Forecast Return On YELP Capex of at least tenfold over and above the YELP  SPV's  Capex within 5 years, as calculated by applying the Return On YELP Capex Formula using Return On YELP Capex Software; and

             b)         Second National Preventive Health Research Programme -

                          i)          will attract within 12 months of the final 'Launch Date' 5,100 Interested Marginalised Teenagers to become 5,100 Aggregate IMT Student Singers, Dancers or Musicians, of which over 1,000 would be Indigenous Australians, for the Seven Purposes Of Second National Preventive Health Research Programme;

                          ii)         5,100 Interested Marginalised Teenagers would become directly involved in 'The Performing Arts' by joining one of 20 Show Choirs,  20 Symphony Orchestras or 20 Dance Companies with a Local Community Common Bond Support Group which imbues the slogan "Forging friendships through The Arts" in the Selected 20 of the Lowest Socio-Economic Regions In Australia With A Population >1,500 to correct the dearth of Social Infrastructure; and

                          iii)        enable 5,100 Aggregate IMT Students to compete in an Annual National Bohemian Teenagers ''The Performing Arts Are Fun' Competition with BTAAP RTV Promotion providing a powerful BTAAP RTV Motivational Incentive

3.          has written Two National Preventive Health Research Programmes which involve 60 Private Sector Equity Holders -

             (a)        contributing 50% of TNPHP Four Year Budget Cost being $31.275m of a $62.550m, for the reasons set out in Four Benefits To 12 Proposed Private Sector Equity Holders;

             (b)        assisting review and refine the Two National Preventive Health Research Programmes for approval by NPA's  Board of Governance;

             (c)        enhancing their Brand Name cost-effectively;

             (d)        providing two Golden Gurus each who, will bring high-level 'hands-on'  creative leadership in the Five SPVs, and be invited to be 160 Pioneer Members Of The Prime Minister’s Council for Active Living;

             (e)        tangibly assisting through the Second National Preventive Health Research Programme  5,100 Aggregate Interested Marginalised Teenagers in the Selected 20 of the Lowest Socio-Economic Regions In Australia With A Population >1,500 to demonstrably improve their physical and mental health within 12 months, and then propagate BTAAP after 2 years to other low socio-economic regions; and

             (f)         establishing a platform for Corporate Philanthropy

4.          confirms that the Five SPVs would report to the NPA's  Board of Governance

5.          keen to support your "It is keen to hear, and to tell others, of your contribution" by the BPD publishing his Two National Preventive Health Research Programmes on a new website www.preventivehealth.com.au or www.preventivehealth.net.au and inviting bloggers on yourHealth.gov.au to opine on the merit of my Two National Preventive Health Research Programmes at yourHealth.gov.au

VicHealth's "The health and economic benefits of reducing disease risk factors" released 8 Oct '09 unequivocally justifies implementing the Two National Preventive Health Research Programmes

The Business Plan Developer refers to his Ninth Letter to Chair of Preventive Health Taskforce dated 5 August 2009 which informed that the Business Plan Developer had -

(i)         deferred the 16 Months Tenure Of Preparatory Research Programme to commence on 1 November 2010 in Perth; and

(ii)        written the core of the Second National Preventive Health Research Programme then limited to the Bohemian Teenagers Symphony Orchestras Programme which would -

  *      emulate Five Renowned Famous Orchestras And Choirs Which Have Successfully Targeted Homeless and Marginalised by adopting the Venezuela Model with a Bohemian Cultural Flavour to specifically appeal to Interested Marginalised Teenagers; and

  *       attract at least 1,500 Interested Marginalised Teenagers from within, or near to, the Selected 20 Lowest Socio-Economic Regions In Australia With A Population >1,500 to become IMT Student Musicians who make up 20 Bohemian Teenagers Symphony Orchestras applying the Six Functions Of BTSO SPV for the Four Purposes Of Second National Preventive Health Research Programme with a Forecast Return On BTSO Capex.

 

 

 

 

I.         Background

I initially submitted my YELP Holistic Hub First Business Plan to Professor Warwick Anderson, CEO, NHMRC of Australia on 12 Nov 2007 Professor Anderson's response dated 13th Dec 2007 suggested I approach NSW Health and finished with "I trust this information is helpful and I wish you well in your endeavours."

On 28 Feb 2008 I submitted an abridged explanation of YELP to the 2020 Summit, but I "didn't get a guernsey".

 

 

Shaun Larkin's e-mail to Business Plan Developer of 31 July 2008 5:18 PM included -

"Input and content such as you have provided is very much appreciated by me in my role as a member of the National Preventive Health Taskforce.
I suggest you forward a copy of the information provided to Peter Morris at the Department of Health and Ageing."

Log # 53. Chair of Taskforce's letter to the Business Plan Developer dated 2 April 2009 noted "Best wishes for continued development of the programme." 

Upon receiving Shaun's e-mail, and subsequently chatting with him, and receiving your brief letter, I continued developing the YELP First Business Plan with gusto, which accords with the Prime Minister's Goal To Involve The Private Sector, facilitate Philanthropy and 'Corporate Social Responsibility' and utilise Golden Gurus.

Section 7. "Towards a National Preventive Health Strategy – your views" of your Discussion Paper invited submissions. 

Peter Morris' letter to me dated 2 July 2009 included "the Government will consider on merit any recommendations the Taskforce may make concerning support for community programs in physical activity."

Extracts from Taskforce's Terms Of Reference, Extracts from Taskforce's Discussion Paper, our Prime Minister assertions re the value of utilising Golden Gurus and involving the private sector and establishing a platform for Corporate Philanthropy influenced the type of management structure in my YELP Holistic Hub First Business Plan and Second National Preventive Health Research Programme which both comply with Prime Minister's Goal to involve the Private Sector, facilitate Philanthropy and 'Corporate Social Responsibility' and utilise Golden Gurus.

Annexure G  "Schedule of Correspondence" provides links to my 98 letters and CDs (out of 113 items of correspondence) which I have posted to ministers for health, environment, climate change and innovation, at both Federal departments and NSW state govt departments over the last 20 months, in addition to the members of the Preventive Health Taskforce, and the PM's Chief of Staff.

The Business Plan Developer has keenly posted all 98 letters and CDs because -

a)         has enjoyed directly assisting >100 interested adults over the last 20 years from the local community to shed weight, improve their diet and reduce drug intake by enjoying the Fun and Addiction of Recreational Exercise within a Local Community Common Bond Support Group; and

b)         worked on major infrastructure projects for 18 my 37 years at Commonwealth Bank and I understand the A to Z of progressing a business plan with the stakeholders, often known as an Information Memorandum, to 'Financial Close', thence 'Practical Completion' and then to the 'Operations Stage' to achieve a ROCE ideally above the 'Hurdle Rate' to deliver a project on time and within budget - noted in Eleven Steps To Complete A Greenfield or Brownfield Infrastructure Project

 

II.         I did not request anyone not to publish details of Youthful Exuberance Lifestyle Programme on the Preventive Health Taskforce website

 

 

APPENDIX 4: Submissions to the Preventive Health Taskforce lists:

367

YELP Program Concept

Immediately under the above listing appears:

"A number of organisations provided multiple submissions, bringing the total number of submissions (as distinct for organisations) to 397.

These submissions can be found on the Preventive Health Taskforce website at www.Preventivehealth.org.au.  Some submissions have not been published on the website at the request of the author(s)."

I did not request anyone not to publish a link to Youthful Exuberance Lifestyle Programme on the Preventive Health Taskforce - Submissions webpage or not to publish a file(s) that explains YELP such as the definition of Youthful Exuberance Lifestyle Programme, First Business Plan or the Executive Summary.  

My submissions provide for the Five SPVs to each pay me a $1 Peppercorn Fee for my 22 months of R&D to produce my Two National Preventive Health Research Programmes which 60 Private Sector Equity Holders would fund 50% of Equity Contributions.  Working on R&D for 22 months for $4 patently highlights that I have no concern over privacy or I.P.

A two or three page letter which the particular writer believes is a wonderful new idea, could be viewed by the Taskforce as a "Concept".  However, in light of the Taskforce's explicit Terms Of Reference, the Taskforce considering a 500 page structured Youthful Exuberance Lifestyle Programme, with over 400 Defined Terms, which Achieves All The Taskforce's Terms Of Reference, to be a "Concept", leaves me flummoxed. 

The penultimate paragraph of the "Chair’s Foreword" of Australia: the healthiest country by 2020 includes "The Taskforce invites your help in making Australia a healthier country.  It is keen to hear, and to tell others, of your contribution."

Hard drive space is remarkable cheap, and hitting 'Send' on an 'FTP Publisher' to publish the contents of my CD requires a few minutes I.T. work, although it would likely take 10 mins or so for the PC to transmit the files to the Taskforce's web host.  Hence, in light of your above enthusiasm ".........to hear, and to tell others, of your contribution", I am surprised that you did not publish anything about my submission in APPENDIX 4: Submissions to the Preventive Health Taskforce

III.       In keeping with "It is keen to hear, and to tell others, of your contribution", I look forward to canvassing support for my Two National Preventive Health Research Programmes

 

I have two websites (www.Muggaccinos.com and www.KOMpm.com).  I look forward to inviting via the national forum at yourHealth.gov.au other Australians to Google my Two National Preventive Health Research Programmes on www.preventivehealth.com.au or www.preventivehealth.net.au (not yet set up) and to opine via the forum at yourHealth.gov.au on my commitments to enthuse Interested Adults from amongst Australia's 22m Human Brownfield Infrastructure to become materially healthier, pursuant to Propagation Forecasts And Targets, Pilot Goals, Forecasts & Predictions and Milestones Timetable

 

yourHealth.gov.au will facilitate others, in particular those with Project Development Expertise, who share our Prime Minister's Goal to involve the Private Sector, facilitate Philanthropy and 'Corporate Social Responsibility' and utilise Golden Gurus with specific skill sets, and other bloggers who favour the injection of 'Private Sector' capital on new Preventive Health programmes where the 'Private Sector' is able to provide creative input, to comment on -

 

(a)        First National Preventive Health Research Programme known as YELP, to achieve its Pilot Goals, Forecasts & Predictions, Propagation Forecasts And Targets, Timetable Of Milestones and a Forecast Return On YELP Capex based on the YELP Budget of $19,400,365 for 4.9 years to end June 2016 which will reduce the Adverse Costs by greater than $212,000,000 after 5 years; and

(b)        Second National Preventive Health Research Programme's capacity, within 3 Year Net Budget for Second National Preventive Health Research Programme, to attract within 12 months of the 'Final Launch Date' 5,100 Interested Marginalised Teenagers applying to become 5,100 Aggregate IMT Student Singers, Dancers or Musicians, of which over 1,000 would be Indigenous Australians, thus becoming directly involved in 'The Performing Arts' by joining one of 20 Show Choirs, Symphony Orchestras or Dance Companies with a Local Community Common Bond Support Group which imbues the ethos "Forging friendships through The Arts" in order to compete in one of Three Annual National Bohemian Teenagers ''The Performing Arts Are Fun' Competitions and achieve its Forecast Return On BTAAP Capex.

By providing high-level, creative leadership in 'hands-on' roles in the Five SPVs, the -

(i)         32 Pioneer Fit Old Farts under the First National Preventive Health Research Programme; and

(ii)        96 Golden Gurus In Second National Preventive Health Research Programme,

collectively 128 Golden Gurus under my Two National Preventive Health Research Programmes would be eligible to be 160 Pioneer Members Of The Prime Minister’s Council for Active Living.

 

Below is an extract from the Taskforce's final report to the Minister for Health & Ageing dated 30 June 2009:

"Exercise is considered the ‘best preventive medicine for old age’.[56] Evidence suggests that the impacts from a wide range of physical health and mental health conditions and dependency in old age can be reduced or minimised through regular physical activity of moderate intensity.[59]  The inherent challenge is how to encourage the uptake and maintenance of physical activity amongst the older population, especially for those who have not been active over their lifetime or who have experienced a change in their level of mobility or living arrangements.[56]"

Youthful Exuberance Lifestyle Programme directly targets the afore-mentioned "...inherent challenge..." by showing Interested Adults that both Moderate and Rigorous Recreational Exercise are Fun and Addictive when within a Local Community Common Bond Support Group, and highly attainable by reigniting one's Youthful Exuberance Growth Phase I associate almost daily with some of the hundreds of folk, mostly middle aged or older, that I share recreational exercise with annually, who love Challenging  Rigorous Recreational Exercise Resolute Diehards profiles a few.

Your Discussion Paper and Final Report cited a recent US study Prevention for a Healthier America that estimated for every US$1 invested in "proven community-based disease prevention programs" (ie. increasing physical activity, maintaining a Healthy Diet and reducing smoking levels), the return on investment over and above the $1 per head cost of the program would be US$5.60 within five years.  It did not explain what the proven community-based disease prevention program involves.

That recent US study did not also measure the material health cost savings due to reducing excessive consumption of alcohol (which apart from liver disease, also include costs such as alcohol induced violence, assaults and trauma accidents, in particular car accidents) from a proven community-based disease prevention program. 

A Preventive Health programme to Improve Personal Health & Fitness for Interested Adults, who are presently leading a Sedentary Lifestyle, which induces the above improvements in physical activity, nutrition and reduced smoking from "proven community-based disease prevention programs", would also materially reduce excessive consumption of alcohol, as participants within their local community Local Community Common Bond Support Group strived to improve their fitness to be competitive with other participants.  Hence, the YELP First Business Plan asserts that based on empirical data re the cost of Recreational Drug Abuse, in particular excessive consumption of alcohol (refer Section 3) that if the reduction in excessive consumption of alcohol had also been quantified in the afore-mentioned recent US study, the forecast benefit of US$5.60 within 5 years would be US$7 circa within five years for a one-off US$1 outlay. 

Although no research has ever been conducted to collectively measure the economic cost of the Fifteen Problems (set out in Section 3), or indeed anything approaching this number of Adverse Effects which are in the main due to Negligent Lifestyle and a penchant for Economic Materialism, as explained in Causes, the YELP Holistic 'Hub' First Business Plan contends that the Forecast Return On YELP Capex for every dollar expended by the YELP  SPV, determined by testing the Hypothesis, will be at least tenfold over and above the YELP  SPV's  Capex within 5 years and likely to swell in the main due to the increasingly deleterious effect of Climate Change and burgeoning rates of Obesity.

The Executive Summary is testimony to the YELP First Business Plan's detail with a Snapshot Page To 10 Project Benchmark Techniques To Appraise Economic Merit Of YELP under a 21½ months Pilot to achieve the Pilot Goals, Forecasts and Predictions and the Primary Research Programme Forecast Results within the Pilot Budget

IV.      My Two National Preventive Health Research Programmes meet criteria in your Terms Of Reference, Discussion Paper and Final Report

V.        Five SPVs would report to NPA's  Board of Governance

 

I have read the 226 page 'Full Report', and the snapshot 59 page Overview.  I have modified the YELP Holistic Hub First Business Plan to achieve 1. in the above headings, by amending the Sole Voting Rights from the previously proposed Four Public Sector Equity Holders to NPA's  Board of Governance, whereupon the YELP  SPV, administered by 32 Pioneer FOFs who work for 16 Equity Holders which fund 100% of YELP's  Budget Costs, would report to the Board of Governance

 

 

Once the 16 Equity Holders are comfortable with the final form of the YELP First Business Plan, referred to as Interested Parties Agreed YELP First Business Plan, the 16 Equity Holders would then submit the First National Preventive Health Research Programme to the Board of Governance for the Board of Governance's approval, whereupon the 16 Equity Holders would expend the YELP Budget Costs that the 16 Equity Holders would provide, pursuant to the YELP  Holistic  Hub First Business Plan.

 

In simple terms, the 32 Pioneer FOFs from the 16 Equity Holders, who each possess Five Pioneer FOF Qualities, would recommend the Implementation Strategy (which includes the YELP Budget) to the Board of Governance who would either accept or reject it.  If the Board of Governance approved the Implementation Strategy, the YELP  SPV would action it.

 

Whereupon on 1 Nov 2009, or afterwards, a 16 Months Tenure Of Preparatory Research Programme within  21½ Months Tenure Of Pilot, could be launched to 'inter alia' achieve by end-2016,  165,000 fitter, stronger Australian  Interested Adults better able to work (from 2023) to the 67 pension age

 

VI.       The Business Plan Developer seeks a meeting with a member(s) of the Taskforce or a member(s) of the NPA's  Board of Governance, or both to discuss my Two National Preventive Health Research Programmes which comply with "urgent action is required"  and "learning by doing'"

 

In light of "Based on current trends there is an urgent and immediate need to address the growing prevalence of obesity and overweight in Australia", and the above, I seek a meeting with a member(s) of the Taskforce or a member(s) of the NPA's  Board of Governance, or both, to discuss YELP's capacity to reduce the >$155 million annual cost of Fifteen Problems which the Taskforce's Three Public Health Risks dominate; in the main due to Negligent Lifestyle by implementing urgent action via YELP which accords with learning by doing.

 

I also ask you to read Second National Preventive Health Research Programme known as the Bohemian Teenagers Arts Assistance Programme which utilise the Venezuela Model based on Five Renowned Famous Orchestras And Choirs Which Have Successfully Targeted Homeless and Marginalised and the Success Of 'Show Choirs' Involving over 1,000,000 U.S. College Students since the '60s.  Both of these successful precedents warrant funding/implementing the Bohemian Teenagers Arts Assistance Programme to address the dearth of Social Infrastructure in the Selected 20 of the Lowest Socio-Economic Regions In Australia With A Population >1,500 in keeping with the below recommendation in the Taskforce's final report:

·          "Fund, implement and promote effective and relevant strategies and programs to address specific issues experienced by people in low-income communities"

As logged in Annexure G "Schedule of Correspondence", this Tenth Letter to Chair of Preventive Health Taskforce dated 8 October 2009 which encloses 2 CDs of the Two National Preventive Health Research Programmes "as at 8 October 2009", informs that the Business Plan Developer has also posted -

 

 

 

 

 

i)          1 CD of the Two National Preventive Health Research Programmes "as at 8 October 2009" under covering letter to each of the six other Members of the Taskforce; and

 

ii)         2 CDs to Peter Morris, Dept of Health & Ageing, dated 8 October 2009; and

iii)        1 CD to Ms. Susan Rogers, Dept of Health & Ageing dated 8 October 2009.

NB:           I have received 4 acknowledgement letter from Peter Morris which are logged in Annexure G "Schedule of Correspondence".  I recently noticed that each letter was addressed to 5 Ronald Ave, The Freshwater NSW 2466.  My address is 5 Ronald Ave, Freshwater NSW 2096.  I do not know if there were any other letters that did not find there way to 5 Ronald Ave, Freshwater NSW 2096.

Yours sincerely
