Collection and usage attributes
Guide for use:	This metadata item should always be recorded as an 8-digit valid date comprising day, month and year. Year should always be recorded in its full 4-digit format. For days and months with a numeric value of less than 10, zeros should be used to ensure that the date contains the required 8 digits. For example if a person received assistance from an agency on 1 July 2000 the Assistance receipt date should be recorded as 01072000 as specified in the representational layout.
Collection methods:	The date recorded should reflect the date on which the client received any type of assistance. Where a client receives more than one occasion of service on the same day, the agency should separately record each occasion of service against the same date.

The HPA collection required format is DD/MM/YYYY. For the purposes of this collection this data item should record the date that the assistance is first received by the household, regardless of whether this date precedes the 2009-10 financial year. The originating date of assistance will precede 1/7/2009 whenever households commenced receiving an ongoing form of assistance in a previous financial year and continued to receive that assistance in the 2009-10 financial year, or whenever households have, for the given assistance type, outstanding balances on repayable assistance provided in a previous financial year. For example, if a household first received direct lending assistance in the 2001-2002 financial year and has a balance outstanding on their loan at the commencement of the 2009-10 financial year, the assistance received date for direct lending assistance will be the date their loan was issued in the 2001-2002 financial year. If they then commence receive ongoing mortgage relief on this loan in the 2008-09 financial year and continue to receive mortgage relief in the 2009-10 financial year, then the assistance received date for mortgage relief will be when it was first provided in the 2008-09 financial year.
