Statistical Indicators No. 1/2010
Page Content
SUMMARY
Economic indicators: NSW provides a snapshot of selected aspects of the
NSW economy over the last four or five years. While the information presented
is primarily concerned with trends in NSW, the paper also provides comparable
statistical information on economic activity in the other Australian States and
Territories.
The major source for much of the information in this paper is data collected by
the Australian Bureau of Statistics. The figures used are the original numbers,
unless otherwise indicated. Sources other than the Australian Bureau of
Statistics have been used where relevant and are identified in the paper
itself.
Information on the March 2010 quarter is included where available. Where the
data for the March 2010 quarter has yet to be released, the information for the
indicator reflects the most recent data for a complete quarter.
It is anticipated that an Economic Indicators: NSW paper will be
published quarterly, updating each indicator to include the most recent data.
However, some indicators such as Gross State Product will only be updated on an
annual basis when new information becomes available.
