title: Australia's population growth, composition and distribution: emerging research needs.
abstract: "In 1993 the charter of the [Australia] Bureau of Immigration Research (BIR) was widened to encompass other areas of population and its name changed to the Bureau of Immigration and Population Research (BIPR).... The aim of this paper is to identify some emerging research needs in the area of Australia's population growth, composition and distribution that the BIPR might profitably address.... The paper attempts to put forward some issues which the writer believes are important gaps in our present knowledge regarding the growth, composition and distribution of Australia's population."
