The new figures would be welcomed by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) which has been counting on a revival in home building to help offset the drag from a cooling mining boom.

The Australian Bureau of Statistics on Wednesday reported it had revised figures on home building work, dwelling starts and non-residential building going back for some years. The revisions were overwhelmingly higher.
