WHAT'S NEW THIS MONTH

Topics which have been updated with new data in this month's issue of SA Stats include: Construction; Consumption; Demography; Housing Finance; International Merchandise Trade; Labour Force; and Water.

This month's SA Stats includes a feature article that focuses on Engineering Construction in South Australia. For the first time since this measure was introduced more that 20 years ago, the value of engineering construction work in this state is greater than the value of building construction work. The article considers the underlying features of the recent surge in engineering construction activity in South Australia and compares private and public sector activity. Labour force data for the construction industry is also assessed.
