Yes, every previous censes Census Enumerators were paid good money to deliver the big yellow envelopes to every house in the land, but this time round we will be delivering them for no extra money, unless of course we go over time.

As I first thought and this would appear to vindicate my initial first response.

As Scotland’s biggest survey, the census is used to produce national and neighbourhood statistics that help to decide how billions of pounds worth of public services, like health, housing, education and transport, are planned and provided.

The 2011 Census will ask 13 household questions and up to 35 questions for each individual. These questions were selected following six years of research and consultation.

In what will be one of the biggest logistical undertakings by the public sector in Scotland, the coming months will see around 6,000 temporary census takers being recruited and trained and equipped to deliver questionnaires to households throughout the country.
