LGAclaims

LGAclaims: the data were given by Gillian Heller and can be found in de Jong and Heller (2007).
 This data set records the number of third party claims, <code>Claims</code>, in a twelve month
 period between 1984-1986 in each of 176 geographical areas (local government areas) in New South Wales,
 Australia. Areas are grouped into thirteen statistical divisions (<code>SD</code>). Other
 recorded variables are the number of accidents, <code>Accidents</code>, the number of people killed or
 injured and population with all variables classified according to area.
