There will be a trial for the 2027 census in September. That could be an opportunity to get feedback on the types of questions asked. We do not want somebody sitting at home who needs an explanation as to what a question means; it needs to be very understandable. That is always the thinking when asking the question. It needs to be understandable to everybody at home so that they do not need to ask somebody what the question means. That is a tricky endeavour. The pilot taking place this year would be a good time to feed into it.
