Found this useful DITRDCA summary info sheet on Australian urban and regional statistical geographies that is much easier to review than the ABS summaries.
Time to brush up on your GCCSAs, SUAs, UCLs, RAs and SAs?
[Not clear why UCLs dated 2020?]

The New Zealand government is abolishing funding for social sciences and humanities in favour of STEM, to support economic development.
It's a foolish and retrograde step that undervalues knowledge of society, both economically and as a public good.

Here's a good video on the Danish cost-rental social housing financing model, where tenants pay rents tied to the capital cost, then once repaid into a rolling solidarity fund.
