Abstract

The percentage of births to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander mothers reported to the MDC ranged from 65 to 70 per cent between 2000 and 2003. Reporting varied markedly between area health services, ranging from 37.5 per cent in the Sydney South West Area to 89.4 per cent in the Greater Western Area in 2003 (Table 34, Figure 2).
