Comments:![]() | Comparability with similar reporting ATSICPP Indicator 2.4 is derived using the same methodology as the Permanency Outcomes Performance Framework Indicator 1.6 (AIHW 2021). For additional details and background on the method and development of this indicator, see Child protection Australia 2019–20 Appendixes B–E (AIHW 2021). Age Only children aged 0–16 were included in this indicator to allow for a full 12 months of follow up. This is because 12 months following the reunification for a child aged 17, that child would be aged 18 and no longer eligible for entry into out-of-home care. |
