Australia has had at least one significant chemical spill per month for the last 30 years. While the Longford disaster fades from the news, James Hardy's asbestos problem fills its place. This project will develop a general conceptual framework in which to analyse the economics of risky firms. The framework will be used to evaluate Australian, International, and alternative policies. The end benefit to Australia will be an improvement in policy toward firms that cause accidents.

在过去的30年里，澳大利亚每月至少发生一次重大的化学品泄漏事件。当朗福德灾难从新闻中消失时，詹姆斯哈代的石棉问题填补了它的位置。本项目将制定一个总体概念框架，用以分析风险公司的经济情况。该框架将用于评估澳大利亚，国际和替代政策。对澳大利亚来说，最终的好处将是改善对造成事故的公司的政策。
