ABORIGINAL AND TORRES STRAIT ISLANDER AND NON-INDIGENOUS COMPARISONS

This selection of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and non-Indigenous comparisons are based on the latest information available for these health indicators. They are drawn mostly from the Health and Welfare of Australia's Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples, Oct 2010 (ABS cat. no. 4704.0). New information on these and other health indicators will be available in the late 2013 AHS release, 'First Results from the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Survey' and subsequent AHS releases (see release schedule).
