Saving each census is an ongoing issue for all genealogists.
As member of the Australasian Federation of Family History Organisations (AFFHO)
we have given our support to their campaigns to encourage more and more
Australians to Tick Yes to saving their returns for future generations.
The response to each campaign has bought a better result with a higher
participation rate but there is still a long way to go to get the 100%
we would all like to see.
As the next census draws closer it will be necessary to intensify our
lobbying to increase awareness in the general community.
The support of each member society in their local community is a
very valuable aid to obtaining our goal.
We will keep this page up-to-date as material becomes available.
