The results of these studies are based, in part, on data supplied to the ABS under the
Taxation Administration Act 1953, A New Tax System (Australian Business Number) Act 1999,
Australian Border Force Act 2015, Social Security (Administration) Act 1999, A New Tax
System (Family Assistance) (Administration) Act 1999, Paid Parental Leave Act 2010 and/or
the Student Assistance Act 1973. Such data may only be used for the purpose of administering
the Census and Statistics Act 1905 or performance of functions of the ABS as set out in
section 6 of the Australian Bureau of Statistics Act 1975. No individual information
collected under the Census and Statistics Act 1905 is provided back to custodians for
administrative or regulatory purposes. Any discussion of data limitations or weaknesses is
in the context of using the data for statistical purposes and is not related to the ability
of the data to support the Australian Taxation Office, Australian Business Register,
Department of Social Services and/or Department of Home Affairs core operational
requirements.
Legislative requirements to ensure privacy and secrecy of these data have been followed. For
access to MADIP and/or BLADE data under Section 16A of the ABS Act 1975 or enabled by
section 15 of the Census and Statistics (Information Release and Access) Determination 2018,
source data are de-identified and so data about specific individuals has not been viewed in
conducting this analysis. In accordance with the Census and Statistics Act 1905, results
have been treated where necessary to ensure that they are not likely to enable
identification of a particular person or organisation.
