Comments: The State and Territory (S/T) is the largest spatial unit in the Main Structure and in the Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS). Six States and six territories are recognised in the ASGS: New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, South Australia, Western Australia, Tasmania, Northern Territory, Australian Capital Territory, Jervis Bay Territory, Territory of Christmas Island, Territory of the Cocos (Keeling) Islands, and Territory of Norfolk Island. Further information about these regions can be found in the following publication: Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS): Volume 1 - Main Structure and Greater Capital City Statistical Areas, July 2016 (cat no. 1270.0.55.001). http://www.abs.gov.au/ausstats/abs@.nsf/mf/1270.0.55.001
Subject: State and Territory (S/T) are political entities with fixed boundaries. Except for the last four mentioned Territories, the total area of each S/T, including their offshore islands, is used for statistical purposes as a separate spatial unit in the Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS). Jervis Bay Territory, and the Territories of Christmas Island, Cocos (Keeling) Islands and Norfolk Island are included as one spatial unit at the S/T level under the category of Other Territories. Previously, Norfolk Island had not been included in the ASGS. In line with Australian Government announced reforms to the governance of Norfolk Island and its inclusion into the definition of Geographic Australia, the 2016 ASGS has been updated to include the Territory of Norfolk Island. The ASGS is constructed on the principle that it must fulfil user needs for geospatially enabled statistics while, also conforming to general classification principles. The ASGS is designed to meet user needs for social, demographic and economic statistics. The regions of the ASGS below the S/T level are designed such that they are: - useful and relevant for data dissemination - flexible for aggregation into larger units - useful building blocks for user-defined regions.
