Our first attempt to produce a census with people completing their return on line seems to have been a disaster.
One might have thought @StatsNZ would had a trial go before replacing the old system when people completed hard copy returns, delivered and collected personally to their front doors. With this census you could request the personal delivery but it would appear that as many as 400,000 (see Update above, now 700,000!) people did not, or did not complete the return online. That's one person in every ten, with proportionally more omissions from remote areas, poor people and Maori.
