A document that purports:
(a) to be published by the Australian Statistician; and
(b) to contain statistics or abstracts compiled and analysed by the Australian Statistician under the Census and Statistics Act 1905 (Cth);
is evidence that those statistics or abstracts were compiled and analysed by the Australian Statistician under that Act.
Note for section 159
Section 5 of the Commonwealth Act extends the operation of section 159 of the Commonwealth Act to proceedings in all Australian courts.
