Appendix B to OIA2425-0694
Caveats to data set:
-
The data was collated on 17 February 2024 and is accurate as at this date.
-
Tables with country of birth data have counts of less than 5 masked with <5 to prevent identification of individuals.
-
Country of birth is not confirmed until a application has been assessed by a Life and Identity Services Officer (LISO), therefore unassigned application may not have the correct country. This is often the case with
people entering New Zealand as the country of birth mistakenly.
-
As data is extracted from dynamic systems, there may be small variances when compared with prior or future datasets.
