Other Christian religions account for the rest. Of the remaining 35% of the population 28% claimed no religion in the last census. Judaisms, Islam, Buddhism, Sikh and Hindu make up the majority of the rest along with other minority religions. The figures are based on the 2001 census, the next census is due in 2011.
