| Basic Community Profile R2.0 | CSV Data For Collection District the WA tables 22 A and 22 B are populated with 0's. These tables should be populated with numerical data. The SA and WA UCL files are WA and vise-versa. These have been renamed, ie: the file 'UCL_SA_B01.csv' to UCL_WA_B01.csv' and vise versa. For SSC, tables B42 and 43 are missing approximately 40 SSC's. For all geographies table B38 is to be updated. Data values that contribute to the table will change. Metadata For file: BCP2006_cell_desc_dp_R2.xls The letter 'm' was attached to data variables that should be 'persons' in the metadata file: Cells misaligned with DataPack cell counts for table splits. Cells B6422 is the ending of Table 42 (B) and cell 6423 is the start of Table 42 (C) Cells B6622 is the ending of Table 42 (C) and cell 6623 is the start of Table 42 (D) | The corrected files are available to DataPack users via zip file over email.

Example 2: Table X04 in the 'cell_desc' metadata file is missing values for split tables up to the 198th cell in table C.
