Data quality of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander identification: seven community services data collections

This report examines the quality of identification of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander clients in seven data collections. The analyses focused firstly on the extent to which Indigenous status was missing or not stated in each data collection and, secondly (where possible) whether improvements in data quality had occurred over time. Thirdly, variations in data quality were explored in relation to particular groups of clients (e.g. age, sex, or service type) and by geographic location.
