British Migration to Australia Falls Short of Expectation
Provisional figures from the Commonwealth Bureau of Census and Statistics show British migrants to Australia making up about seven percent less than expected. For the five years to June 1859 British migrants were 46 percent of arrivals, while non Australian British migrants were 39.1 percent. In the latter half of 1959 the trend persisted with 52.3 percent of migrants British born seeking settlement versus 44.5 percent non Australian British. The bureau notes interpretive complexity and cites the 1954 census as the most reliable measure, with 82 percent of long term migrants born in Britain.
