- | Survey response flag | Boolean
[1]
| | DSS specific information: For jurisdictions providing all unit record data using the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare survey: If the organisation hasn’t returned a survey (survey response = N), then we would only expect admin organisation and dwelling data (supplied by jurisdictions). If the organisation has returned the survey (survey response = Y), we would expect the survey variables in addition to the admin variables in the organisation and dwelling files. Additionally we would also expect a tenancy file and person file from the organisation. Note that NT does not survey the sector and so all survey responses are set to N. For jurisdictions providing finalised figures (NSW and Qld): Jurisdictions who provide finalised figures (NSW and Qld) only ever provide unit record organisation and dwelling admin data (the information provided by non responding organisation as above). NSW uses their own survey to collect the data from organisations. Their survey response indicates those organisations who have completed their survey. Qld also uses its own survey however they do not indicate which organisations have completed their survey all not (all survey responses are N). Qld provide coverage information separately. |
