Computation description: | Rates are directly age-standardised to the Australian population as at 30 June 2001.
Excludes smokers who have not consumed 100 cigarettes or the equivalent amount of tobacco in their lifetime, and people who have not smoked in the past 12 months. Scope of collections limited to persons usually resident in private dwellings.

Estimates for non-Indigenous people estimates exclude those living in very remote areas of Australia. |

Benchmark: | National Healthcare Agreement By 2018, reduce the national smoking rate to ten per cent of the population and halve the Indigenous smoking rate. NPA on Preventive Health 15(g): Reduction in state baseline for proportion of adults smoking daily commensurate with a two percentage point reduction in smoking from 2007 national baseline by 2011; 3.5 percentage point reduction from 2007 national baseline by 2013. |
Further data development / collection required: | Specification: Long-term
Mechanisms for reporting annually in between surveys are being explored. There is scope for improved capacity in jurisdictions depending on the implementation plan for the National Partnership Agreement on Preventive Health. |
Other issues caveats: | Quality statements should note that data from non-private dwellings (e.g. hospitals, prisons, nursing homes) are excluded from household surveys.
Some disaggregations may be too small for publication. |
