["(c) ","Investigations relate to notifications received during the financial year. If the investigation was completed by 31 August it is classified as finalised. If the investigation was not completed by 31 August it is classified as not finalised."]

["(e)","Prior to 2006-07, the category 'Investigations in process' was called 'Investigations not finalised'."]
["(f)","‘Investigation closed - no outcome possible' includes cases where an outcome of substantiated or not substantiated could not be reached, but where the file may be closed for administrative reasons. Prior to 2006-07, these cases may previously have been recorded as 'Dealt with by other means'."]
["(g)","‘Dealt with by other means' includes notifications that were responded to by means other than an investigation, such as referral to family services or provision of advice. Prior to 2006-07, some of the cases recorded as 'dealt with by other means' may have been cases where the investigation was closed with no outcome possible. Dealt with by other means also includes cases that were previously reported as 'no investigation possible/no action'."]
["(h)","NSW: Data for NSW relating to 'Notifications investigated', 'Notifications resolved without investigations' and 'Notifications dealt with by other means' for 2011-12 and 2012-13 are not comparable to previous years. The counting rules changed for 2011-12 data to better account for recent practice changes. Regarding investigations data, NSW figures are not comparable with those of other jurisdictions. NSW has a differential investigation response whereby an investigation can be undertaken over two stages (stage 1 - information gathering; stage 2 - assessment)."]
["(i)","Victoria: In Victoria, if a case is open following the first notification, no further notifications concerning the child are recorded. During 2006-07, Victoria introduced a major new data system, which was progressively rolled out across the State. In parallel, the Children, Youth and Families Act 2005 which commenced in April 2007, introduced new service pathways and processes in Victorian Child Protection and Family Services to support earlier intervention and prevention for vulnerable children and their families. Due to these new service and data reporting arrangements, Victorian child protection data from 2006-07 onwards may not be fully comparable with data from previous years."]
["(j)","Queensland: The category 'investigation closed - no outcome possible' is considered to be a finalised investigation. This includes notifications where there was insufficient information to enable an assessment outcome of substantiated or unsubstantiated i.e. the family was unable to be identified, located or has moved overseas and the investigation is therefore considered closed. 2006-07: Notification figures for Queensland are affected by a change in recording practice. From March 2007, any new child protection concerns received by the department that relate to an open notification or investigation and assessment are recorded as an additional concern and linked to the open notification/investigation and assessment. Previously, any new child protection concerns received by the department were recorded as an additional notification. 2011-12: Additional staff focused on investigations and assessments were deployed across Queensland. This resulted in a decrease in the number of investigations not yet finalised, and an increase in the number of investigations with a finalised outcome of substantiated, unsubstantiated or no investigation and assessment outcome."]
["(k)","WA: For WA, a safety and wellbeing assessment (investigation) is counted as ‘finalised’ if it is approved, otherwise it is counted as ‘in process’. The number of notifications increased between 2005-06 and 2006-07 as all Concern for Child Wellbeing reports are now classified as a notification. Previously, only those that were followed by an investigation were counted as a notification. For 2011-12, initial enquiries where the primary concern for a child was emotional/psychological abuse, physical abuse, sexual abuse or neglect are counted as notifications in this table. "]

["(m)","Tasmania: In Tasmania, a change was made to the business processes for recording notifications in February 2008. New contacts made about similar concerns during an open notification/investigation period, within 6 weeks of the first contact, were added to the notification as a ‘case note’. Case notes are not included in the count of notifications and hence comparison between values from 2007-08 to 2008-09 should be made with caution."]

["(b)","NSW: NSW data do not include children on finalised supervisory orders. NSW is working to improve the way it counts admissions to care and protection orders. NSW does not currently strictly adhere to the national counting rules. "]
["(c)","Victoria: During 2006-07, Victoria introduced a major new data system, which will be rolled out across the State by mid 2008. In parallel, the Children, Youth and Families Act 2005 which commenced in April 2007, introduced new service pathways and processes in Victorian Child Protection and Family Services to support earlier intervention and prevention for vulnerable children and their families. Due to these new service and data reporting arrangements, Victorian child protection data for 2006-07 onwards may not be fully comparable with previous years data. Data for 2006-07 are based on an extract from the new child protection system which only contains information relating to open cases and/or cases commenced after 1 July 2000. As the earliest history that can be traced back for a client is to 1 July 2000, if a child had been admitted to an order prior to 1 July 2000 they may be counted as admitted for the first time in 2006-07."]
["(d)","Queensland: Previous admissions to care and protection orders in other jurisdictions could not be counted. During 2012-13, reporting on children subject to an order continued under Section 99 of the Child Protection Act 1999 was enhanced. When a child is subject to an order granting custody or guardianship to the chief executive or to a member of the child’s family, Section 99 allows for the original order to continue until an application is decided by the court for an extension or for another order. Previously, some children subject to orders continued under Section 99 were not included in the count. As a result, the number of children discharged from orders has decreased and is not comparable to previous years."]

["(c)","Victoria: During 2006-07, Victoria introduced a major new data system, which will be rolled out across the State by mid 2008.  In parallel, the Children, Youth and Families Act 2005 which commenced in April 2007, introduced new service pathways and processes in Victorian Child Protection and Family Services to support earlier intervention and prevention for vulnerable children and their families. Due to these new service and data reporting arrangements, Victorian child protection data for 2006-07 onwards may not be fully comparable with previous years data."]

["(e)","WA: Children on care applications are included in the category 'interim and temporary orders'. Specifically, in WA, the application for a care and protection order to be issued for a child is counted as an interim order for national reporting purposes. However, no order is actually issued during this stage. It is thus not valid to compare the number of orders on a percentage basis. Implementation of the Children and Community Services Act 2004 in March 2006 required the legal status of children in care to be reviewed and Protection Orders were sought for a number of children already in care but not under care and protection orders, for 2006 onwards. In 2006-07, the number of children on orders included 24 children who were placed on Enduring Parental Responsibility orders."]

In parallel, the Children, Youth and Families Act 2005 which commenced in April 2007, introduced new service pathways and processes in Victorian Child Protection and Family Services to support earlier intervention and prevention for vulnerable children and their families. Due to these new service and data reporting arrangements, Victorian child protection data for 2006-07 onwards may not be fully comparable with previous years data."]
["(h)","Queensland: During 2011-12, additional staff focused on investigations and assessments were deployed across Queensland. This resulted in a decrease in the number of investigations not yet finalised, and an increase in the number of investigations with a finalised outcome of substantiated, unsubstantiated or no investigation and assessment outcome."]
["(i)","WA: The number of notifications increased between 2005-06 and 2006-07 as all Concern for Child Wellbeing reports are now classified as a notification. Previously, only those that were followed by an investigation were counted as a notification.  For 2011-12, initial inquiries where the primary concern for a child was emotional/psychological abuse, physical abuse, sexual abuse or neglect are counted as notifications in this table. Implementation of the Children and Community Services Act 2004 in March 2006 required the legal status of children in care to be reviewed and Protection Orders were sought for a number of children already in care but not under care and protection orders. WA is currently unable to report a child’s characteristics based on his or her first substantiation. As a result, a small number of children might be double counted in this table where there has been more than one substantiation and these notifications had differing characteristics such as age or abuse type. Children on care applications are included in the category 'interim and temporary orders'. Specifically, in WA, the application for a care and protection order to be issued for a child is counted as an interim order for national reporting purposes. However, no order is actually issued during this stage. It is thus not valid to compare the number of orders on a percentage basis."]
["(j)","SA: SA includes in ‘notifications' only those reports which have met the criteria for a reasonable suspicion of child abuse or neglect. "]
["(k)","Tasmania: For 2010-11, the proportion of substantiations for children of unknown Indigenous status impacts the reliability of these data. As such, any comparisons of the Indigenous status breakdown to previous years should be made with caution."]

Rates for Indigenous children were calculated as the number of children aged 0-17 years (including those whose age was not stated) in out-of-home care at 30 June, divided by the estimated population aged 0-17 at 30 June using 'Series B', Experimental estimates and projections, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians, 1991 to 2021 (cat. no. 3238.0)."]
["(e)","Rates were calculated as the number of children aged 0–17 years (including those whose age was not stated) in at least one out of home care placement during the year, divided by the estimated population aged 0–17 at 31 December, multiplied by 1000. For Indigenous children, the June projections for two years were averaged to obtain a population figure for December of the relevant year. Rates could not be calculated for children of unknown Indigenous status as corresponding population data were not available."]
["(f)","NSW: In NSW, payments are made to relative/kin carers as well as foster carers. Relative/kin carers care for many children who are not on an order."]
["(g)","Victoria: The foster care category for Victoria includes children on permanent care orders where carers are in receipt of foster care payment and children in individually tailored home-based arrangements. During 2006-07, Victoria introduced a major new data system, which will be rolled out across the State by mid-2008. In parallel, the Children, Youth and Families Act 2005 which commenced in April 2007, introduced new service pathways and processes in Victorian Child Protection and Family Services to support earlier intervention and prevention for vulnerable children and their families. Due to these new service and data reporting arrangements, Victorian child protection data for 2006-07 onwards may not be fully comparable with data from previous years."]
["(h)","Tasmania: The scope for out-of-home care was expanded in 2007-08 to include children in care where a financial payment was offered but was declined by the carer. Tasmania is not able to adhere to this definition of out-of-home care. However, the number of carers declining a financial payment is likely to be low. The number of children in out-of-home care as at 30 June 2007 is not comparable to that reported for previous years for Tasmania because of exclusion of a cohort of children who did not meet the definition of out-of-home care."]

The number of children in out-of-home care as at 30 June 2007 is not comparable to that reported for previous years for Tasmania because of exclusion of a cohort of children who did not meet the definition of out-of-home care."]

["(c)","Victoria: During 2006-07, Victoria introduced a major new data system, which will be rolled out across the State by mid 2008.  In parallel, the Children, Youth and Families Act 2005 which commenced in April 2007, introduced new service pathways and processes in Victorian Child Protection and Family Services to support earlier intervention and prevention for vulnerable children and their families. Due to these new service and data reporting arrangements, Victorian child protection data for 2006-07 onwards may not be fully comparable with data for previous years."]

From 2008 data refer to the length of time in continuous out-of-home care and is therefore not comparable with previous years. Only limited data were available for 2006-07 due to the transition to a new information management system."]

The number of children in out-of-home care as at 30 June 2007 is not comparable to that reported for previous years for Tasmania because of exclusion of a cohort of children who did not meet the definition of out-of-home care."]
["(g)","NT: The NT is unable to reliably distinguish between respite and non-respite care. As a result both types of placement were included if they satisfy the definition of out-of-home care. A change in the counting algorithm for 2008-09 resulted in a more accurate distribution in the length of time in out-of-home care compared with 2007-08. In addition, improvement in data quality in 2008-09 resulted in a more accurate count of children in out-of-home care. The number of children in out-of-home care reported in 2007-08 was likely to be undercounted. "]
