Tables 5.3 and 5.4 provide information on day care services for other client groups. Day care figures for other individual client groups are included in Chapters 1 to 4. Please refer to the notes in annex A for definitions on which the data are collected.
In 1998 a new methodology was introduced for dealing with non-response. Care should be taken when comparing time series data before and after 1998 as the figures may not be directly comparable. Please refer to annex A for more details.
