Has anyone else noticed that, in an environment where up to a third of food businesses don't comply with food handling regulations, there aren't many people unwell or dying from the food they buy?

Based on the registered DHS food safety template there's a lot of record keeping involved. Stuff that people who are dealing with food everyday have always managed with using common sense? (yes, I know common sense isn't so common.)

I feel that we've over formalised the food safety process. People aren't learning to trust their experience or intuition and soon we'll all be dying from ignorance.


Also,

Would a public-public partnership (PPP) work to get this built?
a 15 to18-kilometre radius centred on Flinders Street Station. It could run Sandringham, Moorabbin, Huntingdale, Monash University, Glen Waverley, Nunawading, Macleod, La Trobe University, Thomastown, Broadmeadows, Melbourne Airport, Keilor Plains, Deer Park and Newport. For circle closure and to avoid unnecessary reversing, the circle trains could continue from Newport to Flinders Street to Sandringham and the reverse.

We could get all of the people who would use the train to subscribe and offer them low or no cost travel on the future train.
