Summary
This paper provides an Australian perspective on the question of the boundaries of official statistics. It provides some insights based on what is happening in Australia that may be of value to a more general discussion of the changes that I believe represent both a significant potential threat but also a great opportunity to official statistics systems in the next decade. The experience of every country will be different but it is my view that there are changes occurring that official statisticians will ignore at their peril.
