Populations are counted and estimated in various ways. The most comprehensive population count available in Australia is derived from the Census of Population and Housing conducted by the Australian Bureau of Statistics every five years. However the Census count is NOT the official population of Rockhampton Region. To provide a more accurate population figure which is updated more frequently than every five years, the Australian Bureau of Statistics also produces "Estimated Resident Population" (ERP) numbers for Rockhampton Region. See data notes for a detailed explanation of different population types, how they are calculated and when to use each one.

  • Ap2 Final 16.2.17
    PALASZCZUK’S SECOND YEAR AN OVERVIEW OF 2016 ANN SCOTT HOWARD GUILLE ROGER SCOTT with cartoons by SEAN LEAHY Foreword This publication1 is the fifth in a series of Queensland political chronicles published by the TJRyan Foundation since 2012. The first two focussed on Parliament.2 They were written after the Liberal National Party had won a landslide victory and the Australian Labor Party was left with a tiny minority, led by Annastacia Palaszczuk. The third, Queensland 2014: Political Battleground,3 published in January 2015, was completed shortly before the LNP lost office in January 2015. In it we used military metaphors and the language which typified the final year of the Newman Government. The fourth, Palaszczuk’s First Year: a Political Juggling Act,4 covered the first year of the ALP minority government. The book had a cartoon by Sean Leahy on its cover which used circus metaphors to portray 2015 as a year of political balancing acts. It focussed on a single year, starting with the accession to power of the Palaszczuk Government in mid-February 2015. Given the parochial focus of our books we draw on a limited range of sources. The TJRyan Foundation website provides a repository for online sources including our own Research Reports on a range of Queensland policy areas, and papers catalogued by policy topic, as well as Queensland political history.5 A number of these reports give the historical background to the current study, particularly the anthology of contributions The Newman Years: Rise, Decline and Fall.6 Electronic links have been provided to open online sources, notably the ABC News, Brisbane Times, The Guardian, and The Conversation.

  • April 2020 Newsletter
    NEWSLETTER ("Covid-19" Special) April 2020 Official Newsletter of the Austin Seven Register of Qld. Inc. (formed 1967) "It may be a while before we are on the Road again, Mate!!" (Ken Bell's 1934 Saloon is waved off by Brett Reif from Doug and Robyn's) President’s Report APRIL 2020 Hi Fellow Members A word from our President: All members, Members will not need to be told that Covid-19 has turned all our worlds upside down. Our home and work lives have experienced a seismic shift the size and speed of which is unparalleled in recent history. As you’d be aware we have new legislative and moral conditions around what we can and cannot do in order to protect our society from the worst that Covid-19 can wreak. In light of this, the Committee has resolved that all club activities will cease for April, May and June. The meetings and monthly runs have been cancelled while the Rocky and Country Runs have been postponed till 2021. I’m sure this will be disappointing news to all members but there is no viable alternative. So what can we do to fill the gap left by our regular meetings and runs? I’d hope that we can keep the A7RQ torch burning by regularly checking in on each other and where possible posting on Facebook or Instagram anything that we think other members would be interested in. I’m sure lots of our members have projects, both Austin and non-Austin that the rest of us would be interested in while we do our self-isolation time.
