complete, asking about work, health, national identity,
citizenship, ethnic background, education, second homes, language,
marital status and so on. Statistics based on the answers to the
2011 census will be used to build a picture of today’s society.

results of the census will be ready for release in early
2012. it is anticipated that the first set of results from the
census, probably population figures, will be available sometime in
the summer of 2012.
