that is what they have been saying but others have said it will through off the previous years ones if they do that. It will be quite interesting years down the track when they look back at this "snap shot" one.
They are not done till the 8th of March & the guy that delivered ours said when they pick up they will try 3 times if not don't online so I guess the same goes for delivery & many would deliver in the weekend. You get a Internet Access code so you can do it online. You can call them on 0800 236 787

Don't panic if you haven't got yours yet, census date is not til the 8 March and all people should have forms by midday 8 March. However, at this stage all deliveries have been suspended until further notice. If I hear anything further I'll update you all on here

Yea... it wouldn't have been very accurate to miss Christchurch out, and I don't know how they could have realistically included Christchurch. Such a shame that they have to waste all the money they've spent so far, but I'm not sure what else they could have done...

wow did not realise how much it cost....A census costs $90 million over five years and $42 million had so far been spent on the the one that has now been cancelled....according to the NZ Herald..

I hope all of you NZ census employees are going to get paid anyway so you won't lose out due to the cancellation.

I agree, I thought of you Minik8e (and any others) when they announced this.

I heard on the radio that the Govt WILL honour its contracts with the collectors, so they should all be OK

Lucky I love to fill out forms! I had already filled out our households online, so guess I will get to go it all again whenever it does happen next!

I still haven't received any forms so guess we won't be getting them at all now! Mind you we never get election forms either, must be the forgotten suburb... Glad the people still get paid!!
