This code will only be available for a limited time to allow companies a reasonable amount of time to collect and report accurate values in the future. GIS will monitor the use of the Temporary code and companies will be advised in advance when the use of this code will be terminated. The SP reporting requirements for the new unbundled data elements are listed in the following table. ata lement ommuting istance One-way (in kilometers) nnual riving istance (in kilometers) laim Value/ Values = T = Temporary Values = T = Temporary usiness Use Percentage (%) Marital Status Values = T = Temporary M = Married N = Not Married T = Temporary iscount Indicators Three new iscount Indicators will be required to be reported for Private Passenger Vehicles in the Vehicle Segment of all SP and laim transactions.
