Baseline Valuation Report
About the Baseline Valuation Report
The Baseline Valuation Report provides a baseline analysis of lifetime welfare costs as at 30 June 2015. It sets a benchmark and highlights areas of interest.
The report gives us a foundation to begin the investment process. With more analyses, this will help us develop policies and programs based on evidence and direct them where they best deliver results.
Further annual valuations will increase the evidence base and help identify what is working.
