Scenario: For this assessment, imagine that there is currently a parliamentary inquiry into each of the four issues below. You, as an engaged citizen and someone knowledgeable about health, have decided to make a submission. Task: Choose one of the health issues below and write an evidence-based parliamentary submission. Your submission should be making a clear link to relevant social determinants of health (that is, you're arguing for a position and linking it to the SDOH). From there, you should provide a policy recommendation(s) - what is it that should be done to make the policy healthier? Length: Your submission work is to be approximately 2000-2500 words [+/- 10%; references are not included in the word count]). The following health topics are those the government is having an 'inquiry' into:: 1. Pill testing/drug checking (that is, allowing people to test the contents of their ecstasy pills). 2. Soft drink tax. 3. Indigenous school attendance/school completion. 4. Renewable energy. Layout: There is no set layout for a parliamentary submission. I have provided three examples from a quick online search, and you're welcome to follow one of those or find your own. You want it to look professional, however, so keep that in mind. You also want it to be evidence-based, so referencing is important.
