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.
At URL provided, select 'Industry sectors > Secondary Production - SEP > Ready mixed concrete by region (AST) (Qrtly-Mar/Jun/Sep/Dec)'. All variables were selected to create this dataset.
From the dataset Production Survey - Ready-mixed Concrete: Ready Mixed Concrete by region (Quarterly) December 2023, this data was extracted:
Rows: 4-131
Columns: 2-73
Provided: 3,456 data points
