SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Submissions need to address the questions that are included in the Submission Form so that they can be carefully assessed. A copy of the questions to be addressed when making a submission is included in Appendix 1.
Authorisation
The ABS may make public the views put forward in your submission. The information provided in the submission would mainly be used to summarise the case for or against a topic, or to answer questions from members of Parliament about the number and nature of submissions received.
However, the ABS will not publish the names of persons or organisations making submissions without first obtaining their permission to do so. The Submission Form includes a question that asks whether the person or organisation agrees to the ABS making public reference to their name or organisation name in relation to their submission.
More than one submission
Each topic will be considered on its own merits. It should be noted that each submission should be about only ONE topic. A separate submission needs to be completed for each topic requested for inclusion, exclusion or modification.
How to lodge a submission
The Submission Form is available electronically and in hard copy.
The electronic version of the Submission Form can be completed online or downloaded from www.abs.gov.au/2011censusviews and saved onto your computer for drafting and finalisation prior to submission. Electronic submissions should be lodged online at www.abs.gov.au/2011censusviews or emailed to 2011.census@abs.gov.au.
