In short, in some areas, social policy could treat both resident and non-resident parents as eligible parents for the one child.
Consequently, our estimated transport costs may be lower than actual costs facing many non-resident parents.
Cause-specific mortality data were collected by verbal autopsy interviews for all notified deaths of both the resident and non-resident household members.
Residents also came into contact with non-resident relatives and friends of the proprietor; including adult children and their children, siblings, and occasionally parents.
As is typical, the non-resident parents for whom we developed budget standards are assumed to be male.
Similarly, eligibility rules for income support payments rarely recognise the parenting responsibilities of non-resident parents.
It may place a level of financial burden on some non-resident parents that restricts their capacity to have adequate contact-care of their children.
This outcome is due to the additional travel involved in transporting children between resident and non-resident parents.
