One of the issues we were all thinking about when the different set, as we are now calling it, first emerged was the treatment of licensees. I ask this question for my own clarity: if I own a house and Deputy O'Callaghan rents a room in the house as a licensee, how is that recorded in the census? If I am the homeowner and head of the household, obviously I fill out the census and licensees do not fill out a separate census form because the form is for the property. Is there any visibility of licensees in the census data itself?
