Policy context
The number of children and young people is based on the Estimated Resident Population (ERP) which is a demographic statistic used to estimate the number of people living in a specific area at a given point in time. ERP takes into account factors like births, deaths, and migration (both international and interstate) to provide a more accurate picture of the population.
