My first introduction to the name Ben Hall came about by my father when on a long drive from our home in Queensland to our former Victorian home following my fathers service in Viet Nam, and our first opportunity as a family to visit my grandmothers and the wider family of Uncles, Auntys and Cousins, and to recover my sister who was holidaying at the family 's holiday home at Phillip Island.

Of particular relevance is the need to assess whether products, processes, situations and activities could increase the risk of significant health consequences for human populations. The department of health in Western Australia has endorsed the use of health risk assessments of potential impacts to health during the planning stages of new developments and to evaluate activities where potential risks to health are being considered (Henrici, 2005). The processes outlined in this document provide a more specific characterization of potential risks to the public than currently available and being developed to assist proponents and others required to undertake formal impact assessments for new developments. These processes may also be useful for other forms of assessments where risks to the public are being considered. Users are also referred to the following publications when undertaking risk assessments for health: health risk assessment in Western Australia (department of health) environmental health risk assessment: guidelines for assessing human health risks from environmental hazards (ehealth council, department of health and aging).
