Guide for use: | A count of the applicants who became official clients of the adoptions section of the relevant state/territory department within the reporting period. An applicant can be a married couple, a de facto couple or a single person. The method by which the applicant becomes an official client will vary for each jurisdiction, and may be when the department first opens a file, when the applicant registers, or when they are invited to attend an information session. Applicants who are already a client of the department but are applying to adopt a subsequent child, or reapplying to adopt, should be counted as applicants applying for the first time. |
