Accurate data on the suicide of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are important for understanding communities at risk and measuring changes in suicide rates over time. However, Indigenous Australians are often poorly identified in these data. This report identifies suicide relevant key data sets and explores their limitations. It also describes previous and current data enhancement activities and suggests areas for further enhancement.
