Reminder letters and field staff

Second reminder letters have been sent this week and more census field officers have started work. They are out in force following up with households who have not yet completed their census.

As a reminder, census field officers will:

  • carry an ID card with their photograph and name
  • work through the day to make contact with residents but will not call before 09:00 or after 20:00
  • never ask for money or bank details
  • never need to enter someone’s home
