How the dates are set
Dates already past are the agencies' own release dates. Dates ahead come from the Central Bank's advance release calendar where it lists them. The rest are estimated from this year's releases: the Department of Census and Statistics publishes no calendar, and tourism earnings and Treasury bill auctions are not on the Central Bank's. An estimate that lands on a bank holiday moves to the next working day. The agency's own announcement decides. Every figure links to its series page, where the full history can be downloaded.
