Yesterday it was:
>The ABS assures Australians that there will be no personal identifiers on the survey form and all materials will be destroyed by the ABS at the end of processing.
and today it is:
The ABS has posted instructions on how to participate in the same-sex marriage postal survey if you're overseas. Unless you've provided the AEC with an overseas postal address, it looks like the only way to participate is to either have someone respond on your behalf in Australia or you personally contact the ABS, online or by telephone, between 25 September to 20 October, from 8am to 8pm Canberra local time.

> CANBERRA, Australia - Australia's highest court cleared the way Thursday for the government to conduct a public survey on whether gay marriage should be legalized.
> Gay rights advocates had argued in the High Court that the government didn't have the power to conduct the 122 million Australian dollar postal survey without Senate approval, but the court dismissed that challenge.
> Opinion polls show that most Australians want same-sex marriage legalized, but many advocates question how representative of Australian attitudes the postal survey would be.
> Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull welcomed the court ruling and urged all Australians to take part in the survey.
> Many opponents of gay marriage support the survey, although some conservative lawmakers have said they will not vote for a change in the law even if a majority of Australians want reform.
> The postal survey was the second choice of Turnbull's conservative government, which had promised a rare, compulsory vote known as a plebiscite.
