STRUCTURE OF THIS RELEASE There are two components to this release: summary information on household internet access and personal internet use; and detailed data cubes. Data used in graphs and commentary are included in the detailed data presented in the data cubes. CHANGES IN THIS ISSUE In previous years, internet use data collected via the Survey of Children's Participation in Culture and Leisure Activities (CPCLA) and the Survey of Disability, Ageing and Carers (SDAC) have been presented in the HUIT release. To reduce the duplication, these data now only appear in the respective survey publications. Recently released data can be found in: Children's use of the Internet and mobile phones in Children's Participation in Culture and Leisure Activities, Australia, Apr 2012 (cat. no. 4901.0) and Disabled and older persons use of computers and the internet in Disability, Ageing and Carers, Australia: Summary of Findings, 2012 (cat. no. 4430.0).
