APPENDIX EXPERIMENTAL COMMUNITY-BASED CORRECTIONS DATA
INTRODUCTION
This appendix presents experimental data for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander persons in community-based corrections. Data are presented as the number of Indigenous persons on community-based corrections orders on the first day of the month.
An initial evaluation of the quality of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander identification by the ABS in community-based corrections has highlighted that currently most jurisdictions comply with the requirements of the ABS Standard Indigenous Question (SIQ - see Explanatory Notes, paragraphs 26 - 28). As Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Status data for persons under the supervision of Community-Based Corrections are still experimental, care should be taken when referring to this data. The quality of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander data is being reviewed in 2010.
