The standard output variable categories are the same as the two level hierarchical classification categories. The residual categories may be output separately or combined. Where a combination item of residuals is to be used in output, this item should be labelled ‘not elsewhere included’ and should have a footnote indicating its composition.
The residual categories are defined in Glossary and references.
The full classification is available in the 'Available Files' section on the main page.
Iwi Profiles’ data are derived from the Census of Population and Dwellings. From the 1996 Census there were 38 profiles produced, one for each Iwi (or group of Iwi) with a population of at least 1,000. There are two types of profiles, full and part profiles.
Full profiles distinguish between Iwi members living in the Iwi region and those living outside the Iwi region. From 1996 data 22 full profiles were produced, each with an Iwi population of more than 5,000.
Part profiles do not distinguish between the Iwi population living in the Iwi region and those living outside it. From 1996 data 16 part profiles were produced, each with an Iwi population of between 1,000 and 5,000.
Profiles were also produced following the 1991 Census.
Published Iwi profiles belong to the individual Iwi, not to Statistics New Zealand.
As the production of a full or part profile depends upon the population counts at the time of the Census, and because changes to the Iwi classification will impact on the composition of the profiles, details of profiles by Iwi are not included in this standard.
