Data in this table is not comparable to numbers of deaths published in Deaths, Australia and Causes of Death, Australia. See the methodology for further information on scope differences. Data may also not be
comparable with other data sources based on the provisional data. Until it has been finalised, the data is subject to continuous updates and quality improvement.
This table includes doctor certified and coroner certified deaths.
This table is compiled by the date on which the death occurred.
This data is considered to be provisional and subject to change as additional data is received.

Age-specific death rates reflect deaths per 100,000 of the estimated resident population (ERP). The rates in this table are presented on a per 100,000 population basis, using quarterly population
estimates published in 'National, state and territory population'. See 'Revision status' in the Methodology for details of the status of quarterly estimated resident population (ERP) used for calculating
rates. The quarters used for calculating monthly rates for the relevant year are as follows: Jan-Mar (March Qtr ERP); Apr-June (June Qtr ERP); July-Sept (Sept. Qtr ERP) and; Oct-Dec (Dec. Qtr
ERP). See the 'Age-standardised death rates (SDRs) and population data' section in the Methodology of this publication for further details.
Refer to the methodology of this publication for more information regarding the data in this table.

Data in this table is not comparable to numbers of deaths published in Deaths, Australia and Causes of Death, Australia. See the methodology for further information on scope differences. Data may also not be
comparable with other data sources based on the provisional data. Until it has been finalised, the data is subject to continuous updates and quality improvement.
This table includes doctor certified deaths and coroner certified deaths.
This table is compiled by the date on which the death occurred.
These data are considered to be provisional and subject to change as additional data is received.

Age-standardised death rates (SDRs) enable the comparison of death rates between populations with different age structures. The SDRs in this table are presented on a per 100,000 population basis,
using quarterly population estimates published in 'National, state and territory population'. See 'Revision status' in the Methodology for details of the status of quarterly estimated resident population
(ERP) used for calculating rates. The quarters used for calculating monthly rates for the relevant year are as follows: Jan-Mar (March Qtr ERP); Apr-June (June Qtr ERP); July-Sept (Sept. Qtr ERP)
and; Oct-Dec (Dec. Qtr ERP). See the 'Age-standardised death rates (SDRs) and population data' section in the Methodology of this publication for further details.

Some rates are unreliable due to small numbers of deaths over the reference period. This can result in greater volatility of rates. As such, age-standardised death rates based on a death count of
fewer than 20 have not been published, and appear as 'np'. See the methodology of this publication for further information.

Mortality rates derived from administrative data counts may be subject to natural random variation, especially for small counts. Confidence intervals (CIs) for an SDR can help quantify this variability.
CIs included in this table indicate a 95% probability that the 'true' SDR is contained within the lower and upper limits of the CI. CIs have been calculated using the standard method and formulas can
be sourced from Breslow and Day (1987) in the 'Statistical methods in cancer research' publication. Further information on the calculation of CIs can also be found on the METeOR website (see
National Indigenous Reform Agreement: PI 08 - Tobacco smoking during pregnancy, 2016).
Refer to the methodology of this publication for more information regarding the data in this table.

Data in this table is not comparable to numbers of deaths published in Deaths, Australia and Causes of Death, Australia. See methodology for further inform
other data sources based on the provisional data. Until it has been finalised, the data is subject to continuous updates and quality improvement.
This table only includes doctor certified deaths.
This table is compiled by the date the death occurred.
These data are considered to be provisional and subject to change as additional data is received.

Age-standardised death rates (SDRs) enable the comparison of death rates between populations with different age structures. The SDRs in this table are p
quarterly population estimates published in 'National, state and territory population'. See 'Revision status' in the Methodology for details of the status of quar
calculating rates. The quarters used for calculating monthly rates for the relevant year are as follows: Jan-Mar (March Qtr ERP); Apr-June (June Qtr ERP);
ERP). See the 'Age-standardised death rates (SDRs) and population data' section in the Methodology of this publication for further details.
Some rates are unreliable due to small numbers of deaths over the reference period. This can result in greater volatility of rates. As such, age-standardised
have not been published, and appear as 'np'. See the methodology of this publication for further information.

Mortality rates derived from administrative data counts may be subject to natural random variation, especially for small counts. Confidence intervals (CIs) fo
in this table indicate a 95% probability that the 'true' SDR is contained within the lower and upper limits of the CI. CIs have been calculated using the standa
and Day (1987) in the 'Statistical methods in cancer research' publication. Further information on the calculation of CIs can also be found on the METeOR w
08 - Tobacco smoking during pregnancy, 2016).
Refer to the methodology of this publication for more information regarding the data in this table.
