Scope:Help on this term

Indigenous community housing (ICH) for the purpose of this collection includes dwellings:

  • targeted to Indigenous people; and
  • managed by Indigenous Community Housing Organisations (ICHOs) able to provide medium to long-term housing tenure to tenants; and
  • who received funding both in the current and/or previous financial years.

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); and
  • the Crisis Accommodation Program (CAP).

Dwellings no longer under the administration of an ICHO at 30 June in the reference financial year (including dwellings demolished, sold or otherwise disposed of) and dwellings not yet available to the ICHO at 30 June of the reference financial year (such as those under construction or being purchased) are also excluded.

-Indigenous community housing dwelling 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 etc.

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

In the Indigenous Community Housing collection, the dwelling address details were collected in an alternative manner:

  • House/lot number - 4 numeric characters
  • Street name - 40 alphanumeric characters
  • Suburb - 15 alphanumeric characters
  • Postcode - 4 numeric characters. Unknown values recorded as "U"
  • Dwelling Longitude - 15 alphanumeric characters. Unknown values recorded as "U"
  • Dwelling Latitude - 15 alphanumeric characters. Unknown values recorded as "U"
  • Dwelling remoteness - ASCG codeset and Unknown values recorded as "U"
  • Dwelling other (location) - 40 alphanumeric characters.

-Indigenous community housing dwelling occupancy status cluster

DSS specific information:

The current standards for dwelling occupancy and tenantability status have been added to this data set, to align the Indigenous community housing collection with other housing collections.

An alternative code set is used by the collection, which accounts for most values in the standard items. The alternative codeset and mapping is as follows:

 

 

ICH label and valueMETeOR standard label and value
1 = Occupied1 = Yes (Occupied) [Occupancy standard]
2 = Untentantable2 = No (Untenantable) [Tenantability standard]
0 = Unoccupied2 = No (Not Occupied) [Occupancy standard]
N/A1 = Yes (Tenantable) [Tenantability standard]
U = Unknown9 = Not stated/Inadequately described [Occupancy and Tenantability standards]

The Indigenous community housing code set excludes the collection of dwellings which are 'tenantable'. Dwellings identified as unoccupied according to the ICH data manual, should by default be considered tenantable. Dwellings identified as occupied according to the ICH data manual, may or may not be considered tenantable.

Mandatory1
-Dwelling—number of bedrooms, total N[NN]

DSS specific information:

Unknown values (code = "U") should be mapped to Not stated/Inadequately described (code = "999").

Mandatory1
-Dwelling—number of households, total N[N]

DSS specific information:

Unknown values (code = "U") should be mapped to Not stated/Inadequately described (code = "99").

Mandatory1
-Dwelling—number of occupants, total N[N]

DSS specific information:

Unknown values (code = "U") should be mapped to Not stated/Inadequately described (code = "99").

Mandatory1
-Dwelling—permanency status, code N

DSS specific information:

This collection uses an alternate code set. These codes should be mapped as follows:

ICH code 1 ("Permanent") = METeOR value 1 ("Yes")

ICH code 0 ("Improvised") = METeOR value 2 ("No")

ICH code U ("Unknown") = METeOR value 9 ("Not stated/Inadequately described").

 

Mandatory1
-Dwelling—tenancy management status, code NMandatory1
-Service provider organisation—dwelling identifier, X[X(14)]Mandatory1
-Service provider organisation—organisation identifier, X[X(14)]

DSS specific information:

In community housing data collections the identifier should be reported by each community housing provider in conjunction with data collected as part of their reporting requirements each financial year. The identifier may only be unique within the state or territory and may be allocated by community housing providers, the state or territory housing authority or the state or territory community housing administrator.
