Number of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people aged 0–64 years who used specialist disability services in the reporting period.
This item has been superseded by a newer version by one or more Registration Authorities.
Definition
Use of specialist disability services by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
Indicator Summary
Estimated Indigenous potential population for disability services aged 0–64 years on 30 June at start of reporting period.
Although the definition of potential population is under review by the National Disability Data Network, theNational Disability Information Management Group (NDIMG)agreed to adopt the conventional definition until the review completes. That is, people aged under 65 years with profound or severe core activity limitation will be used for the baseline CRC report.
The method used to calculate the Indigenous potential population will be the same as that adopted by the Disability Services Working Group for calculation of special needs group indicators for the Report on Government Services 2010. That method incorporates 2006 Census data.
Performance Indicators reporting on disability services funded by the Australian Government (employment services only) are restricted to the age range 15–64 years and not stated age.
