Census to miss key data as visitors in short term rentals slip through (Stuff.co.nz)

While Stats NZ works directly with hotels and other providers, there does not appear to be a targeted effort to reach the large number of residential visitor ...

[full list of all the questions in the 2023 census](https://www.census.govt.nz/what-questions-are-in-the-2023-census/) can be found here on Stats NZ’s census website. The Censuswebsite states that people staying in accommodation such as a hotel, motel, hostel, holiday home or rental accommodation will be given what is required to complete the census by the person in charge of the accommodation. Queenstown Census team leader Ana McDonald said it was not the responsibility of the booking agencies to ensure Census reached visitors, but the Census team. It had “enabled” about 93% of sites by Tuesday morning, meaning Census packs had been delivered to the properties. It was further complicated by language barriers, a lack of letterboxes and the fact that many visitors would not be at their accommodation but might go out for dinner, she suggested.

Airbnb Queenstown host community leader Mary Christensen said operators with guests in their house on Tuesday would be able to remind them to fill in a census form, but it was more difficult to get to those staying in homes without a host onsite. Key data will be missed in the census as large numbers of visitors in short term rentals such as Airbnb slip through the system, it is feared.

Trust in census a big issue, survey suggests (Newsroom)

Already, Stats NZ has partnered with iwi in certain areas to collect data, and tried to garner support through sponsorships, like $350,000 spent on Te Matatini ...

The census board approved an extra $1.8 million to the data delivery project. In an emailed statement, Simon Mason, the deputy government statistician and deputy chief executive of census and collection operations, says at the time of November’s report Stats NZ was slightly behind self-imposed deadlines for systems readiness. A paper in January updated the census board on something called “reduced data capture”, or RDC. November’s independent quality assurance report described as “risky” the constrained data delivery implementation and testing window. “Note, this contingency option has not yet been trained or communicated to field staff to prevent early usage,” the report says. (The appropriate response, ABS said, was to establish media and communications protocols with “key stakeholders, vendors and government agencies”.) The risk of not meeting Māori response targets should be clear five days before census day. “Reaching priority groups (Māori and Pacific Peoples aged 18-49 years, young people, rainbow communities) is a known challenge.” “There is a risk that if Stats are unable to partner effectively this may impede progress. Stats NZ’s January assessment of “Iwi/Māori sentiment” said relationships within Te Mana Whakatipū are being “managed closely”. Census campaign tracking research from August last year surveyed 500 people online, and interviewed 100 people on the streets of South Auckland and Whangārei. Newsroom has been trawling through more than 1000 pages of census documentation, released to us under the Official Information Act last month.

Census officials aim for most inclusive survey to date (RNZ)

Stats NZ says over two million people had participated in this year's census as of 9.30pm yesterday.

She said she read on New Zealand Chinese media that it was against the law to not complete the census - but she was not sure if that information was accurate as the census was not mandatory in China.
