3.3.1 MISSING AND/OR INCONSISTENT INFORMATION
Accurate address coding was crucial in narrowing the search and differentiating between true and false links. It was a particular challenge for persons who had moved, since linkage was then dependent on the information supplied in 2011 about the person's address in 2006. Processing for the 2011 Census involved coding for address five years ago to a fine level of geography, ideally Mesh block. This was not always possible, either due to the insufficient detail of address information supplied or because by 2011, Census respondents may not have accurately remembered their address on Census Night in 2006.
