How can we raise the value of the WHS when it is considered as being of Outstanding Universal Value ? It doesn't get any higher . The problem from my perspective , is not the value but the belief that the value(s) can be quantified .


Aye, some of the wordings used in semi-governmental organisations can be difficult because some words have and ambiguous or other common meaning(s). If you're trying to frame a response in the terms of a consultation, you have to be absolutely sure that you've understood the meaning. It's much easier if you're making a purely technical response.

Is that what you meant or were you referring to my use of the word 'valuation'?




There could be problems defining value but that was secondary and not what I was concerned about .
Similarly I am not bothered about the use of the term valuation , but the problem is how you arrive at a valuation that would involve quantifying cultural values . It can't be done .
