From: T Scrimgeour
Dear Statistics New Zealand,
I would like to know the number of duplicate responses to the 2023 census, that is, forms filled out multiple times by the same person.
I would also like to see any documentation relating to correlating duplicate census forms, with incentives to complete the census.
Thankyou
