If you are travelling through a remote area that is not often frequented and situated some distance away from a town or community, such as roadside stops or within remote National Parks, the ABS has made arrangements for you to still be able to participate in the Census.
People who know they will be travelling in remote areas on Census night will be able to pick up a Traveller's Pack from designated Collection Points located around Australia. (See link below)
The Traveller's Pack contains a Census form, an eCensus envelope, a mail back envelope, a Census brochure and instructions on how to submit an eCensus or mail back the Census form. Packs will be available from Collection Points from 1 August until 15 August.
