Guide for use:![]() | A week is measured from 12:00AM (midnight) Monday morning to 11:59PM the following Sunday. If a service operates within this period then it is counted as having operated during that week. Therefore if an agency operates for only a short time for one of the days within a week, it is counted as operating during that week. | ||||||

Implementation in Data Set Specifications:![]() | Community Services (retired), Superseded 21/05/2010 DSS specific information: In the Children's Services NMDS, this data element refers to the number of full and/or part weeks per year that a child care or preschool service is open for the provision of service(s). This data element is an indicator of availability of child care and preschool services. This data element will be used to gain a greater understanding of patterns of service delivery, in conjunction with information about the hours in the day and the days in the week in which child care or preschool activities are available at a service. New services should count the number of weeks that the service plans to operate in a full year. This question is asked of all services including family day care/in-home care services and their individual caregivers. This data element is used in conjunction with the data elements Session start time, Session finish time, and Day of operation. Community Services (retired), Superseded 14/12/2008 DSS specific information: The number of weeks the service type outlet usually operates. This data element is reported by all service type outlets A service type outlet is considered to be operating whenever a service is provided to service users (e.g. if a service type outlet closes for only two weeks over the Christmas period it should be reported as operating for 50 weeks per year). Service type outlets 7.01–7.04 may record ‘90’ (‘no regular pattern of operation through a day’), or, if possible and they wish to do so, they may record the actual number of weeks of operation.

Community Services (retired), Standard 13/03/2013 Implementation start date: 01/07/2012 Implementation end date: 30/06/2014 DSS specific information: In the DS NMDS this data element refers to the number of weeks the service type outletusually operates. It is asking about the amount of time the service type outlet is generally open for service provision to service users, not about the amount of time a service type outlet is staffed. A service type outlet is considered to be operating whenever service is provided to service users e.g. if the service type outlet closes for only 2 weeks over the Christmas period it is considered to usually operate for 50 weeks per year. This data element is seeking information about the usual weeks of operation of a service type outlet. For example, if a service type outlet received funding from September but intends to operate for 52 weeks per year, ‘52’ is recorded for this data item, and ‘No’ is recorded for the full financial year of NDA funding data item. Service type outlet should record ‘90’ (‘no regular pattern of operation through a year’) if the service type outlet does not have a regular pattern of operation; for example, a recreation/holiday program which is offered only if there are sufficient numbers (i.e. program offered on demand). Service type outlets of activity types 7.01–7.04 may record ’90’ (‘no regular pattern of operation through a year’), or, if it is possible and they wish to do so, they may record the actual number of weeks of operation.
