Refers to the variable AGE in the DOMINO longitudinal data set. 

Age is system calculated from quarterly end date (e.g. 31/3/2011, 30/6/2011, etc.) and the client's date of birth. That is QTR_END_DATE minus DOB, and then divided by 365.25 (the average length of a year considering a leap year occurs every four years).
