Have you ever wondered where all the numbers and facts about Australia come from? Well, a big part of that job is done by the Australian Bureau of Statistics, or ABS for short.
A treasure trove of information:
Imagine you're curious about how many people live in Australia, how many babies are born each year, or how many people have jobs. The ABS is the place to go for these kinds of answers. Its main role is to collect, analyse and share all sorts of information about Australia and its people.
The ABS plays a crucial role in helping the government make decisions. Let's say the government wants to know how many people are unemployed or how many new businesses are opening up. They can turn to the ABS for this information. This helps the government create policies and plans that are based on real facts and figures, making sure they're making the right choices for the country.
The Australian Bureau of Statistics is like a friendly detective agency that collects, investigates and shares information about Australia and its people. From population numbers to economic data, the ABS helps us understand how our country works and how it's changing. So, next time you're curious about Australia's facts and figures, you know where to look – the ABS has got you covered.
