This cluster collects information about service provider organisations that manage Indigenous community housing (ICH) dwellings. Dwellings in the collection include those:

  • managed by Indigenous Community Housing Organisations (ICHOs) who received funding both in the current and/or previous financial years
  • targeted to Indigenous people.

A principle of the ICHO must be to provide medium-term to long-term housing tenure to tenants. This collection excludes dwellings managed under:

  • mainstream community housing (i.e. not managed by an ICHO)
  • public rental housing
  • state owned and managed Indigenous housing (SOMIH)
  • the Crisis Accommodation Program (CAP).

-Community housing and Indigenous community housing service provider organisation address details cluster

DSS specific information:

The data elements in this cluster provide a detailed description of the individual components used to create a dwelling address as described by AS4590. This cluster enables the collection of street name, street number, suburb, postcode and state/territory identifier.

Additional items have been provided to describe other common aspects of address, such as building or complex name, post office boxes etc., if required.

This collection collected address information in an alternative manner, with a single 40 character alphanumeric field.

 

Mandatory1
-Service provider organisation (name)—organisation name, text X[X(49)]Mandatory1
-Service provider organisation—government funding indicator, yes/no code N

DSS specific information:

In the Indigenous Community Housing (ICH) collection "Unfunded" was recorded as "0". However, in this data element "unfunded" has been recorded as "2" and should be mapped accordingly.

For the purposes of this collection 'funded' refers to an organisation that received government funding for the reference financial year, and 'unfunded' refers to an organisation that did not receive funding for the reference financial year.

In NSW, the ICH sector collects data from Aboriginal Community Housing Providers that are actively registered with the Aboriginal Housing Office, rather than by their funding status. For the purposes of this collection, active registration is used as a proxy for funding, but it should be noted that active registration does not guarantee funding.

-Service provider organisation—gross capital expenditure, total Australian currency N[N(8)].NN

DSS specific information:

In the Indigenous Community Housing (ICH) collection, capital expenditure is defined according to the following parameters:

Include:

  • Total expenditure on non-financial assets defined as net expenditure on new and second-hand fixed assets, land and intangible assets excluding capitalised interest. Fixed assets are durable goods intended to be employed in the production process for longer than a year. Expenditure on non-financial assets includes:
    • Total expenditure on purchases of existing dwellings.
    • Total expenditure on purchases of new non-financial assets:
      • The purchase of assets intended to be used in the production process for longer than a year. Includes: fixed assets constructed on own account, valued at cost of materials, capitalised salaries and wages, reimbursements received by public authorities for amounts spent on capital works while acting as an agent for other government and private bodies.
    • Total expenditure on purchases of second-hand non-financial assets:
      • The purchase of assets which have been previously used in production in the country.
    • Total expenditure on sales of non-financial assets:
      • The disposal of previously rented dwellings, non-residential buildings, used plant and equipment. Refers to the sale of land (including the sale of residential leases in the ACT). The sale of land and buildings as a package is treated as sales of fixed assets unless a separate value can be determined for the land component. Also refers to the outright sales of intangible assets and disposal of motor vehicles.
    • Total expenditure on assets acquired under finance leases defined as assets acquired under leases and other arrangements, which effectively transfer most of the risks and benefits associated with ownership of the leased property from the lessor to the lessee.

Exclude:

  • Expenditure on the acquisition of financial assets
  • Second-hand assets imported into the country for the first time which are regarded as new.
  • Assets acquired under finance lease arrangements.
