Title: TV Programme on the 2011 Census
Post by: candleflame on Wednesday 16 March 11 20:48 GMT (UK)
Hi all
For those of you who can receive the BBC TV channels there is a programme going to be broadcast on Friday 25th March 2011, 9pm on BBC2. It's called 'This is Britain' and is hosted by Andrew Marr. It says it will offer a preview of the 2011 census and will look back at previous censuses.

I am surprised how quiet everything has gone about the 2011 Census in the last five weeks.

Will there be press releases soon  to say that some refusers are being prosecuted?

There was an article on the BBC website yesterday about the census police during the rounds visiting people who have yet to return theirs. Apparently something like 1 in 4 have yet to do it.

My local news this evening also had a small story along similar lines.

I thought the return rate was over 90% in most areas.
