DEVELOPMENT OF AUSTRALIA'S POPULATION ESTIMATES

Demography Working Paper 1979/1 - Population Estimates in Australia: A Discussion Paper has been placed on the ABS web site given its historic importance in the development of Australia's population estimates.

At the State and Territory level population estimates based on this new concept were constructed back to 1971.
