Note: Based on Australian Bureau of Statistics, Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS), July 2011.As a result of changes in the timeliness of registration of births in Queensland, care should be taken when interpreting changes in Queensland births between 2006 and 2010. This lag has reduced in recent years, indicating potential improvements in the timeliness of registration of births in Queensland. The December quarter 2009 also saw the Queensland Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages devoting significant time and resources to follow-up and finalise birth registrations where there was previously incomplete information. As part of the Retrospective Births Project, 1,780 births were registered, with approximately 40% registered as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander births (see paragraph 40 for more information). This project is now complete.

SOCIO-ECONOMIC INDEX OF DISADVANTAGE

Socio-Economic Indexes for Areas (SEIFA) is a summary measure of the social and economic conditions ofgeographic areas across Australia. SEIFA comprises a number of indexes, which are generated at the time of the ABSCensus of Population and Housing. In 2011, a Socio-Economic Index of Disadvantage was produced to reflectdisadvantage of social and economic conditions. The index focuses on low-income earners, relatively lower educationattainment, high unemployment and dwellings without motor vehicles. Low index values represent areas of mostdisadvantage and high values represent areas of least disadvantage.

The following table shows the percentage of the population in each quintile (one-fifth or 20 per cent of the population)according to the Socio-Economic Index of Disadvantage. Quintile 1 represents the most disadvantaged group ofpersons, while quintile 5 represents the least disadvantaged group of persons.

By definition, Queensland has 20 per cent of the population in each quintile. In comparison, 22.8 per cent of thepopulation of Moreton Bay Regional LGA were in the most disadvantaged quintile. Compared with the 20 per centaverage across Queensland, 24.4 per cent of the population of Moreton Bay Regional LGA were in the leastdisadvantaged quintile.
