NATIONAL ACCOUNTS
Quarterly national accounts releases will be streamlined from the June quarter 2001 onwards. Currently, ABS releases two quarterly publications: Australian National Accounts: National Income, Expenditure and Product (Cat. no. 5206.0) and two days later Australian National Accounts: Quarterly State Details (Cat. no. 5206.0.40.001). Release times of the Australian and State data will now be merged. State information will now be included in the electronic release component of the national release. In addition, summary State tables will be included in the Cat. no. 5206.0 paper publication.
