Improving Government Policy Making and Needs-Based Delivery of Services: Innovative Techniques to Enhance Administrative Data by Adding Socioeconomic Status

该项目将通过阐明不同社会经济地位在获得或使用保健和教育等关键政府服务方面是否存在重大差异，创造重大的国家效益。目前，大多数部门没有充分利用其行政数据来回答这些问题，因为很难确定用户的社会经济地位。这个项目将帮助澳大利亚正在进行但最近加强的努力，以便更好地利用其行政数据，从而更有效地利用我们的数据资源；更好地针对稀缺的政府资源；以及更好地识别那些最需要帮助的人。

This project will create major national benefits by illuminating whether there are significant differences in access to or usage of such key government services as health and education by socio-economic status. Currently, most departments do not fully exploit their administrative data to answer such questions, because of the difficulty of identifying the socio-economic status of users. This project will help Australia in its on-going but recently intensified efforts to make better use of its administrative data, resulting in a more efficient use of our data resources; better targeting of scare government resources; and improved identification of those in greatest need.
