Editorial

Over the coming year, more attention will be given in Census Update to developments pertaining to the 2001 Census. This will cover articles on a range of issues that relate to the collecting and processing of census data, through to those that impact on the subsequent design and delivery of products and services.
This issue includes information on the new questions being asked in 2001, news on the first major census field test as well as thoughts on the initial development of CDATA2001. There is also an article on a recent decision whereby people will be able to choose in the next census whether to have their census forms retained for 100 years.

To find out proposed release dates for 2001 Census products and services, check out the timetable that will be included in each issue and kept as up to date as possible.

A wealth of information on the census and the wider ABS can also be found on this site.
