title: Indigenous participation in the Australian Health Survey: a response.
abstract: The Australian Health Survey will deliver key health measures for all Australian children and adults, and collect information across Australia. The Australian Bureau of Statistics has consulted widely on the development of the Survey, and has shaped the survey according to strong and consistent advice in relation to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. It is hoped that this approach will maximise survey response rates and place us in good trust to embark on the next survey round.
