VOLUME MEASURES
NOTES FORTHCOMING ISSUES
CHANGES IN THIS ISSUE Quarterly chain volume data are shown in tables 14 and 15 of this issue. A new base year, 2004-05, has been introduced into the chain volume estimates which resulted in revisions to growth rates in subsequent periods. In addition, the chain volume estimates have been re-referenced to 2004-05, thereby preserving additivity in the quarters after the reference year. Re-referencing affects the levels of, but not the movements in, chain volume estimates.
