Arable advocacy?
OPINION: Spare a thought for the arable farmer, squeezed on one side by soft global prices and on the other by limits on further yield increases.
According to Stats NZ, this will be the first time "everyone in Aotearoa New Zealand" will be questioned on such topics.
"People's sense of their gender and sexual identity is really important to them and can impact on their lives and experiences," the woke folk at Stats NZ claim.
"The data will also inform better decision making and provision of services for the rainbow community."
The government's department's soical and population insights general manager Jason Attewell says Stats NZ already collects sexual identity and gender in its other household surveys.
Well, isn't that good to know.
