Decision-makers seek to account for the socioeconomic values of environmental assets. However, understanding the available frameworks and data can be a barrier. We address this here by summarising the data used across four case studies (3 geographic regions and 3 socio-economic value frameworks) to demonstrate what data are available and how they are applied to support decisions in varied contexts
Indigenous services — the open-data ledger
Every card links back to the source dataset on data.gov.au. The Productivity Commission's Indigenous Expenditure Report is the last comprehensive all-government aggregation; it was published in 2017 for 2015-16 and has not been updated. Current Commonwealth program spending is tracked year-by-year from published Portfolio Budget Statements.
Does Indigenous services spending really reach $40 billion a year?
No published dataset supports a $40B/yr figure. The closest sourced numbers, from smallest to largest scope:
Bottom line: the only figure that gets near $40B is the ~$33.4B all-government total (direct + indirect) from 2015-16, inflation-adjusted. There is no current, published dataset showing $40B/yr in direct Indigenous services spending. If the PC report were re-run today it would plausibly land in the $35–45B range on the same methodology — but that number does not officially exist.

Historically, low-lying land adjacent to rivers and coastlines has been favoured for settlement as they provided sources of fresh water, food, transportation and waste disposal. These areas become affected by flooding during sufficiently heavy or prolonged rainfall, high tides or storm surges and cyclones. In the north-west of the State flooding is most likely to be caused by the summer monsoon or
