The Australian Bureau of Statistics will be conducting the five-yearly national Census of Population and Housing on Tuesday, 11th August 2026.
One key question that is optional asks Australians to identify their religion. For Catholics, this question is crucial to helping Catholic parishes, schools, dioceses, and organisations understand their communities.
Please refer to the Media Release linked below from the Australian Catholic Bishops Conference encouraging Catholics to identify themselves in the Census.
