26/09/2011 The most recent edition of Disability Australia was published on 2 May 2011. It was re-published in a more user friendly format on 26 September 2011. A detailed description of data changes can be found in the data cube I-Note. The PDF was removed.

The following is a summary of the data changes contained in this issue:

RECEIPT OF ASSISTANCE:

Errors were identified in the derivation of the 2009 'Extent to which need for assistance was met' data items. The effect of the faulty derivation was that there were more people with partly met needs than there should have been and less people in the not met at all category. All affected data have been corrected in this issue.

TRANSPORT CONCESSION CARDS:

Data items relating to the use of concession cards on public transport were understated. These data items have been corrected and no other transport data are affected.

These revisions will be reflected in all future products from Disability Australia, 2009.
