On 1 August 2011 at 13:49:40 (Canberra time), the resident population of Australia is projected to be:
22,666,863
This projection is based on the estimated resident population at 31 December 2010 and assumes growth since then of:
one births every 1 minute and 46 seconds,
one death every 3 minutes and 40 seconds ,
a net gain of one international migration every 3 minute and 05 seconds , leading to
an overall total population increase of one person every 1 minute and 37 seconds .
These assumptions are consistent with figures released in Australian Demographic Statistics, December Quarter 2010 (cat. no. 3101.0).
