Submissions that were received on topics outside the scope of the consultation process have been recorded and will be considered in statistical development including future censuses.
A full dress rehearsal will be conducted in March 2010. The dress rehearsal will use the approved census forms, and will test the enumeration, processing, and output procedures that have been designed for implementation in the 2011 Census. Only essential changes will be made to the census forms after the dress rehearsal.
In late 2010, Statistics NZ will publish the 2011 Census questionnaire design report. This report will update users on final changes to the 2011 Census forms.
