چکیده
This chapter presents data from the 2002 NATSISS as it relates to Information and Communication Technology (ICT) use, namely computers and the internet. While a number of determinants of ICT use have been well established, like education and income, there are other factors that have a similar impact on ICT use in the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community. Presented here for the first time, these factors include health status, the impact of being on the CDEP scheme, the impact of the justice system, access to online services, and the overall digital divide between remote and non-remote Indigenous communities.
