Inclusions
Target population: All ready-mixed concrete producing activity units in New Zealand. Producers are separated into regions according to current local government regional boundaries.
Population covered: The survey is full coverage of the target population.
Changes to data collection/processing
In 1995, it was decided to change the classification of the regions. Previously regions were classified by the Ready Mixed Concrete Association to which respondents belonged. Due to the limited usefulness for research purposes, it was decided to use local government regions. Statistics for the new regions were calculated back to the March 1992 quarter.
