Guide for use:
The names of regions are determined by the relevant state or territory. The region refers to an administrative concept, not a geographical one, because the intent is to capture expenditure and other related data. States and territories may have one or more regions into which the state or territory is divided and to which its service organisations belong. In those cases, region should be reported using the Region identifier data element. In the smaller states or territories there may only be one or no region. In these cases, the region name would repeat the name of the state or territory.
