RELEASE DATES
The first data release is planned for mid 2017 and will provide core demographic characteristics, such as age, sex, country of birth, personal income, education and need for assistance.
The second data release is scheduled for late 2017 and will include characteristics that require more time for complex processing, such as industry of employment, occupation and labour force status.
