Nah you have to book it online independently (or I missed the cue but if I did it was pretty subtle). Irritatingly the website physically won't let me select anything inside 6 weeks, so not sure what's going on there.
They should start including the number of daily suicides and domestic assaults to really brighten everyone's day.
Every time people raise the SKYROCKETING suicide rates, I ask them to google that. It just isn't lining up. Goes up and down a little, but certainly not trending up.

I saw a similar article recently (can't find it now of course) using the AIHW stats and was surprised that the numbers are in line with other years.Every time people raise the SKYROCKETING suicide rates, I ask them to google that. It just isn't lining up. Goes up and down a little, but certainly not trending up.
Mental health, yes. Domestic assault, yes.
I understand you're kind of a big thing in govt stats? Am I looking at wrong suicide graphs?

our data lags way behind -nearly a year behind today, can get almost none for this calendar year -our burocracy is poor at this; take our GDP numbers yesterday takes out nearly 2.5 months to get out a quarterly figure, so we are almost always a full cycle behind -china gets theirs out in 2 wks, so number is currentEvery time people raise the SKYROCKETING suicide rates, I ask them to google that.

I saw the same thing. I'll see if I can find it at lunch.
Nice work there mate. I hope you aren’t tracking the conversations going off topic with such diligence?I started charting it for VIC last year after my bro was getting super wound up about it. Vic data is kept up to date relatively well. As you can see, it tracks basically unchanged from previous years. I'm happy to share my excel sheet with anyone who wants to check my method for calculating the estimates or that want to delve deeper into the stats.

The NSW suicide stats lag because they rely on stats from the coroner. I can't remember the exact details but suicides often end up in inquests and inquiries. Because we don't have dedicated coroner magistrates, findings are backed up the kazoo. So we won't have accurate stats for some years.Every time people raise the SKYROCKETING suicide rates, I ask them to google that. It just isn't lining up.

Vic numbers are pretty well known, and up to date in my industry, and anecdotally, they correlate.
