CSTDA NMDS
This site provides information about the Commonwealth State/Territory Disability Agreement (CSTDA) National Minimum Data Set (NMDS), which is:
- a set of nationally significant data items that are collected in all Australian jurisdictions (i.e. states, territories and Commonwealth)
- an agreed method of collection and transmission, which facilitates the annual collation of nationally comparable data about services funded under the CSTDA.
This site contains information and resources relevant to the collection of data from all agencies in Queensland that receive funding under the national CSTDA (services that are provided directly by Disability Services Queensland (DSQ) and all other government and non-government agencies that receive funding from DSQ).
This collection of data occurs on a regular basis, and provides information (aggregated) about Queensland services, which can then be compared with similar aggregated data that are collected from CSTDA funded services in other Australian jurisdictions.
As a partner to the CSTDA, DSQ is responsible for coordinating the CSTDA NMDS collection in Queensland. This site provides the following information on the CSTDA NMDS:
