| DDMMYYYY
The day of a particular month and year. | DSS specific information: This data element is used in the youth justice client file cluster as the date on which the person was first supervised or case managed by the youth justice department (date of first supervised order). Guide for Use The date can be before the start of the NMDS (i.e. 1/7/00). A ‘contact’ is an event that is counted as part of a supervised order (i.e., would be within scope for the YJ NMDS). Do not include court appearances or other types of contacts. If the first service contact date is unknown, leave the field blank. Business rules The first service contact must be on or before the end of the reporting period. The first service contact date must be before or equal to the earliest order start date in the YJ NMDS. The young person's age at the first service contact date (calculated using DOB) should be at least 10 years. |

1 | Person identifier | String
[20]
| XXXXXX[X(14)]
A logical combination of valid alphanumeric characters that identify an entity. | DSS specific information: The person identifier is a jurisdictionally-specific code that uniquely identifies a young person (youth justice client) within the State or Territory youth justice department responsible for the young person. A State or Territory identifier should be the first character of the person identifier according to the following: 1 New South Wales 2 Victoria 3 Queensland 4 South Australia 5 Western Australia 6 Tasmania 7 Northern Territory 8 Australian Capital Territory 9 Other territories (e.g. Christmas Island) |
2 | Order identifier | String
[50]
| X[X(49)]
A combination of alphanumeric characters that identify an object or entity. | DSS specific information: For the purposes of the YJ NMDS, this unique identifier is retained across collection periods. The identifier is assigned by the State or Territory youth justice department. In the order file, the order identifier will in most cases be unique. However, where a single order specifies multiple types of supervision, for example a blended order that specifies a period in detention followed by a period of community-based supervision, the information relating to each type of supervision will comprise a separate record but the Order identifier will remain the same. In the example below, order #10001 is a blended order that comprises a period in detention from 1/1/08 to 1/6/08 followed by a period in the community from 1/6/08 to 1/12/08. Order #10002 is an unrelated remand order. Person identifier | Order identifier | Order start date | Order end date | Order type-national | Order end reason | Comment | 1 | 10001 | 01/01/08 | 01/06/08 | 35 (sentenced detention) | completed | blended order part 1 | 1 | 10001 | 01/06/08 | 01/12/08 | 31 (sentenced community-based with and without additional mandated requirements) | completed | blended order part 2 | 1 | 10002 | 15/01/09 | 20/01/09 | 21 (remand) | completed | unrelated order |
Queensland: Don't count detention orders that are followed by a period of supervised release as blended orders. Business rules |
3 | Order start date | Date/Time
[8]
| DDMMYYYY
The day of a particular month and year. | DSS specific information: Guide for use This date may not necessarily be the date that supervision began; for example, if a sentence of detention is backdated to the start of the young person’s remand period, the order start date will be before the period of sentenced detention actually began. Orders may be concurrent and overlap; that is, the order start date may be before the order end date of the previous order. The order start date is the date the order first comes into effect, which may not necessarily be the same as the date the court handed down the order. Orders that are handed down by a court to take effect in the future should not be backdated to the date they were handed down. Business rules |
4 | Order issue date | Date/Time
[8]
| DDMMYYYY
The day of a particular month and year. | DSS specific information: Guide for use The order issue date is the date on which a legal order or arrangement is handed down or issued by the court. The order issue date can differ from the order start date as it is the date that the order was handed by the court, while the order state date is the date an order comes into effect. Orders can be handed down to take effect in the future. In these cases, the order issue date will be before the order start date. The order issue date can be equal to the order start date if the order was issued on the same day that the order came into effect. The order issue date can also be after the order start date if the court order was backdated to take into account time already served. For example, if a sentence of detention is backdated to the start of the young person’s remand period, the order start date will be before the period of sentenced detention actually began. |
5 | Order end date | Date/Time
[8]
| DDMMYYYY
The day of a particular month and year. | DSS specific information: Guide for use The order end date is the date the order ceases to be in effect, as specified on the order. If a young person ceases to be under the supervision relating to the order, but the order is still in effect, the order does not end. For example, if a young person is given a sentenced detention order with an end date of 1 December but is released on supervised release or parole on 1 November, the order end date remains 1 December unless the court varies the end date of the order. If the court varies the end date of the order, the new (varied) end date is the order end date. If an order is revoked or cancelled, the order end date is the date that the order was revoked or cancelled. This includes orders that are revoked or cancelled due to re-offending or failure to comply with conditions and orders that are cancelled, quashed or varied on appeal. If an order extends over two or more reporting periods and the order end date changes because the order was revoked, cancelled, quashed or varied, the order end date and the order end reason will differ between data submissions. The changed order end date should be supplied in the reporting period in which the order was revoked, cancelled, quashed or varied; however, a related record supplied in a previous data submission should not be updated. For example, a record relating to order ID 101 was supplied for the reporting period 2009–10 with an end date of 1/6/11 (that is, the order end date was after the end of the reporting period). A record relating to the same order was supplied in the following reporting period, 2010–11, but the order had been varied and now has an end date of 1/7/09. It is sufficient to report this new end date in the 2010–11 reporting period; a ‘fix’ is not required for the records relating to this order supplied in previous data submissions. When an order end date is after the end of the reporting period (e.g. for the 2009–10 reporting period, after the 30/06/2010) or if the order end date is null in the local data system, supply the order end date or insert the dummy date (22/02/2222) if the order end date is unknown. Do not end the order at the end of the reporting period. Business rules - The order end date must be on or after the start of the reporting period.
- The order start date must be on or before the order end date.
- If the order end date is on or before the end of the reporting period, the order end reason must be a reason other than 0 (not applicable).
- If the order identifier matches the order identifier of another record and the person identifiers are the same, the order end date of the first record should equal the order start date of the second record.

[8]
| DDMMYYYY
The day of a particular month and year. | DSS specific information: The period of time a person is detained in a remand or detention centre in relation to a particular detention type, without change in detention centre and without escaping or absconding. A person may have concurrent detention periods because detention periods relate to particular types of detention (e.g. remand, sentenced detention).

2 | Charge identifier | String
[50]
| X[X(49)]
A combination of alphanumeric characters that identify an object or entity. | DSS specific information: The charge identifier allows for a single charge to be mapped to multiple orders. For example, a young person is charged with a particular offence and is placed on supervised bail. At the next court appearance in relation to this charge, they are remanded into custody. At a later date, an unrelated charge results in the young person being placed on supervised bail. In the table below, the charge identifier shows that the first two records relate to the same offence, but do not relate to the third record, which has the same charge type but a different order identifier. Person identifier | Charge identifier | Order identifier | Charge type | 1 | 1 | 200001 | 0611 | 1 | 1 | 200056 | 0611 | 1 | 2 | 200082 | 0611 |

4 | Order identifier | String
[50]
| X[X(49)]
A combination of alphanumeric characters that identify an object or entity. | DSS specific information: For the purposes of the YJ DSS, this unique identifier is retained across collection periods. The identifier is assigned by the State or Territory youth justice department. This item uniquely identifies each supervised (unsentenced) order. The order identifier links the charge record with an order in the Order file of the YJ NMDS. Each unsentenced supervised order in the Order file should have one or more records in the charge file. |
5 | Offence identifier | String
[50]
| X[X(49)]
A combination of alphanumeric characters that identify an object or entity. | Conditional obligation: Conditional on a charge resulting in a conviction. If charges cannot be linked with offences, do not supply data for this item. DSS specific information: The offence identifier (charge file) allows for a charge to be linked with the resulting offence. If charges cannot be linked with offences, do not supply data for this item. For example, following their first court appearance, a young person is placed on remand for a particular offence (order ID 333). At their second court appearance, they are released on supervised bail (order ID 334). At the third court appearance, the young person is sentenced to a supervised order in relation to the charge. The resulting order is order ID 6 in the order file. The first record shows that the person was charged with an offence and that the related order is order ID333. The offence ID field is blank because for this order, the charge did not result in a conviction. The second record shows that the charge ID is the same as the first record and so the charge is the same. It requires a new record because the order ID is different. At the end of this order, the charge resulted in a conviction, so the offence ID field contains ID of the corresponding offence record. Person ID | Charge ID | Charge type | Order ID | Offence ID | 1 | 1 | 1200 | 333 | | 1 | 1 | 1200 | 334 | 6 |
If the offence identifier matches the offence identifier of another record for the same person identifier, the offence types must be the same. Null values Leave the field blank if: • The offence identifier is unknown • The offence identifier is not applicable. |
6 | Suburb/town/locality name within address | String
[46]
| X[X(45)]
A combination of alphanumeric characters. | DSS specific information: This item is collected for the suburb/town/locality name of the court in which the young person appeared when placed on the order relating to the charge. For police-referred detention, where the young person did not appear in court when being placed on the order, the court location should be reported as ‘Not applicable’. Suburb and postcode information From July 2020, an all-inclusive list of postcodes and suburbs will be used to check postcodes in the YJ NMDS. This list consists of unique postcodes and suburbs across all current and historical versions of postcode data purchased by the AIHW.

2 | Offence identifier | String
[50]
| X[X(49)]
A combination of alphanumeric characters that identify an object or entity. | DSS specific information: The offence identifier allows for a single offence to be mapped to multiple orders. For example, a young person is serving a sentence in detention for offence type 1350. They are released on parole/supervised release in relation to this offence. The first record shows the young person was supervised under order ID 12 (the sentenced detention) in relation to offence type 1350. In the second record, the offence is the same as in the first record because a) the offence types are the same and b) the offence ID is the same. A second record is required because the order ID is different (the parole order). Person ID | Offence ID | Offence type | Order ID | 6 | 1 | 1350 | 12 | 6 | 1 | 1350 | 13 |
If the offence identifier matches the offence identifier of another record for the same person identifier, the offence types must be the same. No null values. |

A combination of alphanumeric characters that identify an object or entity. | DSS specific information: For the purposes of the Youth Justice NMDS, this unique identifier is retained across collection periods. The identifier is assigned by the State or Territory youth justice department. This item uniquely identifies each supervised (sentenced) order. The order identifier links the offence type with an order in the Order file of the YJ NMDS. Each order in the Order file should have one or more records in the Offence file. |
5 | Suburb/town/locality name within address | String
[46]
| X[X(45)]
A combination of alphanumeric characters. | DSS specific information: This item is collected for the court in which the young person appeared when placed on the order relating to the offence.
