| notes | This is a person's current religion, or if the person does not have a religion, 'no religion'. No determination is made about whether a person was a practising member of a religion.
Unlike other census questions where missing answers are imputed, this question was voluntary, and where no answer was provided the response was categorised as 'not stated'.
