Introduction

[ top ]

This report provides an overview of assistance given to clients in Tasmania of the Supported Accommodation Assistance Program (SAAP). The SAAP National Data Collection Agency at the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare prepared the report using data from the Client Collection and the Administrative Data Collection.

The Australian Institute of Health and Welfare has developed a scheme that adjusts for incomplete coverage in the Client Collection. It adjusts estimates to allow for agency non-participation, for clients who do not consent to provide complete information for support periods, for clients who give valid consent for some support periods but not for others, and for clients who do not give consent in any of their periods of support.

Early in 2000, the SAAP Data and Research Advisory Committee (now the Data Sub-Committee) reviewed data reporting practices for SAAP. As a consequence, annual reports such as those published for previous years will no longer be produced. Instead, there will be two main types of published reports relating to the operation of SAAP in 1999 - 2000; national, State and Territory annual reports, such as this one, which concentrate on clients of the program, and a further report (to be published in late 2001) that includes coverage of the general demand for SAAP services, unmet demand and casual client information.
