Welcome to our blog - a place to read and voice opinions about the plans for output from the 2011 Census. Here we will regularly raise topics to prompt comments and start conversation. These will cover issues such as Access, Dissemination, Metadata, and User Support.
Many issues will be prompted by the results on the online user survey which was run in the fist half of 2008. We will publish the full survey results on the website soon, and follow these up with themed discusiion topics. We hope you will join in and contribute your thoughts about the topics discussed by adding replies and comments to each post. We also hope you will take the oipportunity to engage with other users in more detailed discussions using the forum.
