Figure 2.5 summarises the source for ECEC data within Qld that have been used for the 2013 Collection. To maximise the available child URL episodes CCMS data is included to report URL episodes for Qld unfunded programs. Data at the aggregate level from the Qld Early Childhood Education and Care Services Census is used to top-up identified additional episodes. This new approach involves Qld and the Australian Government Department of Education (formerly DEEWR) matching service providers for those Qld aggregate only providers (LDCs) and utilising CCMS URL records for the number of 4 and 5 year old children in those services. Qld adjust their aggregate collection data to exclude those reported from the CCMS collection, ensuring no double-counting.
