2. Severe or profound disability refers to a severe or profound core activity limitation – always or sometimes needing assistance or supervision with self-care, mobility, and/or communication.
3. Figures are rounded and components may not add to total because of ABS confidentiality and perturbation processes. Due to these processes, figures may differ from those published by the ABS and across tables.
