Overview

This program involves the monitoring and reporting (Healthy Food Access Basket (HFAB) surveys) of the relative cost and quality of healthy choices in urban, rural and remote locations in Queensland. HFAB surveys are conducted regularly to monitor the cost and availability of food throughout Queensland. As the HFAB survey has been repeated over time, the latest survey findings can be compared to survey findings from previous years.
