Comments

Guide for use:

A person may obtain cash income from more than one of the above sources. Australian Government Cash Transfers above will be classified to a 3-digit level by target group categories which, can then be further broken down. For example, payments to parents could be broken down into payments to single parents and payments to partnered parents. The latter can be broken down again between those receiving the basic amount and those on full or above basic amounts. Similarly, payments to persons of employable age not elsewhere included, can be divided between different payments like Newstart and Mature Age Allowance, or between job seekers and others.

Social security legislation provides a classification of social security payments of different types.
