The ABS data isn't very accurate, but it would be accurate enough for
the purpose it was intended which is breaking the country up into
various geographical areas for statistical purposes.

The Qld boundary data seems to be more accurate than GPS in most if
not all cases, and it has to be in case of legal disputes arising.

So it's not exactly clear cut as to if imported data is better or
worst, you need to know what the intended purpose of the data is also.
