Housing and infrastructure snapshot in Indigenous communities

The results from the 2001 Community Housing and Infrastructure Survey will be released on Monday, May 6, 2002.

Housing and Infrastructure in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Communities (cat. no. 4710.0) is a snapshot of the status of housing, infrastructure and services available to discrete Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. It updates information from a similar survey conducted in 1999.

The 2001 Community Housing and Infrastructure Survey (CHINS) was funded by the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission (ATSIC).

A media release including summary information will accompany the publication. Both will be boxed at Parliament House Press Gallery in Canberra. The media release will also be distributed by fax.
