Generally this metadata item will be self-enumerated and as such the person or their carer's view should be recorded. The receipt of a disability support pension should not be used as a proxy for identifying people with a disability.

In some cases proof of disability may be required to receive some form of assistance.

This metadata item should be used in conjunction with Household—support services required flag (last month), code N.
