1. Information about the building should be determined only in case of buildings housing more than one dwelling. In case there are two or more enumerated dwellings in the building, indicate information about the building only in the first enumerated dwelling.

2. Information about the buildings housing the dwellings which are managed by legal persons and organizational units without legal personality will be given by the administrative authorities of these buildings.

This information will be given before the census on auxiliary forms, Characteristics of building or they will be directly given to the enumerators, which will contact the administrative authorities in the day of conducting the census.

The forms with Characteristics of Building, after they have been used, should be returned to the enumeration office with the whole set of enumeration materials.

3. Information about the individual buildings owned by private persons i.e. about single-family houses and the so-called small dwelling-houses should be determined by the enumerator during the census and be directly filled-in to the Questionnaire A.

The rules of establishing separateness of the building [p. 57-58]

1. The rules of establishing separateness of the building operating in the census are based on criteria connected to building numeration. According to these rules a separate building is any free-standing building separated from other buildings by free space and with a single ordinal number.

A separate building is also the one which has more than one ordinal number (e.g. separate ordinal numbers are given to particular staircases in a block of flats) in case when it makes a clearly visible architectural unity and is owned by one entity. Page 28

2.In a congested housing comprising buildings of various architectural styles or buildings of a singular architectural style, standing in the so-called ribbon development, as well as in case of semi-detached houses, a separate building is every building or segment with a separate ordinal number.

3. If there are buildings adjacent to each other on the estate with a singular ordinal number and these buildings have walls built from the same materials, they should be treated as one building unless there are significant differences in the height and age of these buildings and there is no doubt that each of these is a separate building. Buildings with outer walls built from different materials should be treated as separate buildings.

Question 1. Type of building [p. 58]

1. A residential building (answer 1) is a building which is entirely occupied by living spaces and a building where apart from dwellings there are other spaces as well, but they occupy more than a half of the building space. This rule does not operate in case of residential-inventoried or residential-farmers buildings, which should be included in category 2, regardless of how big part of the building is occupied by dwellings.

In case of a residential building, establish the number of the dwellings present in the building (including both occupied and non-occupied ones) and write the number in the grid under symbol 1.

2. A building reserved for seasonal use is a building whose construction (according to building regulations) required a construction permit for a residential building, and its main purpose is temporary habitation e.g. for holiday, non-working days. A building formerly used as a residential one but now used only for temporary habitation should also be included in this category.

Please Notice: A typical cottage house should not be included in this category.

Question 2. Who is the owner(ship) of the building? [p. 58-59]

1. An owner(ship) of the building is a private or a legal person or an organizational unit without legal personality holding the tenure corroborated by an inscription in the real estate register or other document corroborating the tenure in case of lack of the register.

While determining the answer only the tenure of the building should be taken into consideration. The land on which the building stands does not have to be owned by the entity owning the building, it may be held in form of a hereditary tenure.

2. A building legally owned by several subjects present in the land and mortgage register is a common real estate.

3. For buildings owned by one party/subject (i.e. there is no space being a separate part of another subject/party) use answers marked by symbols 1-8.

Answer 3. Community (gmina)-regards buildings:

Owned entirely by community or powiat (local condominium),

Handed over to the community (gmina), but remaining/being at the disposal of public utility units, such as: healthcare units, welfare/social assistance units, educational units, cultural institutions.

Page 29

Answer 4. State Property -- should be selected for buildings entirely owned or managed by the entities mentioned in explanations of question 2, section 5, answer 5.

Answer 5. Working establishment company in public sector- regards buildings owned by state and municipal (excluding housing management companies) and state organizational units e.g. universities, research and scientific institutes, art institutions.

Include buildings in category 5 also in case when a working establishment company in public sector has been changed into a public purse one-man company.

Answer 6. Working establishment company in private sector -- regards buildings entirely owned by private working establishment companies, as well as various cooperative societies e.g. labor, medical, agricultural, with the exception of housing cooperatives.

Answer 7. Social building company and answer 8. Other -- select according to the rules described in section V, question 2, answer 7,8 (establishing the ownership of dwelling).

4. Answers from 9 to 12 regard buildings which are common real estate where all or particular dwelling spaces are separate properties of private and/or legal persons. The total number of dwelling owners in the building is the so-called condominium.

Answer 11 -- concerns a building where parts of the dwellings are separate properties of private persons, and the remaining dwellings are owned by a working establishment company in public or private sector.

Category 11 also comprises buildings formerly owned by State Agricultural Farms [PGR] (formerly included into dwelling stock of the working establishments). After the liquidation of PGR, these buildings were taken over by State Agricultural Property Agency which sold part of the dwellings to private persons afterwards. The remaining ones are still kept by the Agency.

Answer 12- regards buildings which are owned by entities other than mentioned in categories 9-11 e.g. community and working establishment company, community -- private persons and working establishment company.

This category also comprises housing cooperative buildings which, after the enforcement of the act on housing cooperatives from 15th December 2000, established separate properties of certain dwelling spaces in favor of private persons.

Answer 13 - concerns buildings which are common real estate but dwellings have not been rendered separate property e.g. particular co-owners do not have a separate real estate register on their own name since there is only one register for the whole building and it describes (in per cent) particular co-owners share of the building (usually regards beneficiaries of the owner of the building, who was a private person)

Question 3a and 3b. Period of the building construction? [p. 59-60]

1. The year of the building construction is the year when the construction was finished i.e. the building was rendered for public use/completed. However, if the building was partially rendered for use (by staircases or wings), the valid year of building construction is the year of completion of the last part of the building.

2. If the building has been reconstructed after it was entirely destroyed, the year of reconstruction completion is valid. However, the fact of a complete renovation of a building should not be taken into consideration when determining the year of construction. Only the year of its construction is valid in that case.

Page 30

3. In case there has been an additional space built on to an already existing building (e.g. one or two rooms or an additional floor), the year of construction of the original building and not of the annex should be taken into consideration while enumeration.

Question 4 and 5. Is there water-pipe and sewage in this building? [p. 60]

1. Indicate systems currently working as well as the ones out of work and these which have actually been installed in the building, but the building has not yet been connected to the mains. Do not include installations out of order for longer than a year.

2. Water-pipe. A building equipped with a water-pipe is a building, where the water mains is delivered to all or some dwellings in the building, as well as where no dwelling has a tap with running water but there is a tap e.g. in the corridor.

The criterion of describing the water-pipe as a net work type or as a local system, is the length of distributing drains delivering the water from the source (of the water intake) to the buildings. A net work is a system of street drains at least 250 m long, not including the length of connections from the street drain to the buildings.

3. Sewage. A building equipped with sewage is building inside which -- in dwellings or corridor - there is a system to which the following appliances are connected: washbasin, toilet, sink, bathtub enabling draining the sewage/waste to the receiving water.

The criterion of qualifying the sewage as net work or as a local system (mostly cesspool) is the length of covered sewers -- underground (street sewers and collecting pipes) draining the sewage from the buildings to receiving water (sewage treatments plant, rivers, lakes and the sea). If the total of these channels (not including the length of additional sewers leading to the buildings) is at least 250 m long it is perceived as a net work. It can be an all navigable sewerage network draining industrial waste and rainwater or it can only be a network for industrial waste.

Part V. Long-term migration-- Questionnaire M [p. 60-62]

Complete (migration) Questionnaire M for persons who have selected answer 3 in question 17 of personal Form, have completed question 18 and simultaneously meet one of the following requirements:

Question 5. Was the previous (last) place of residence in Poland or abroad? [p. 61]

Question 5 (as well as questions 6 and 7) concerns the last place of residence apart from the current place of residence. However, if the person came from abroad or was abroad (for 12 years or more) in years 1989-2002, always select answer 2 (abroad) regardless of the fact whether it was the last stay or not.

Question 6. Specify your previous (last) place of residence in Poland. [p. 61]

1. If the person returned to the current place of residence after a longer absence and during that absence this person stayed in several different places in the country, describe the place (community/gmina) where the person stayed the longest and write the total period of permanent stay away from the current place of residence.

2. The community of the previous residence cannot be the same as the enumerated community (the place of current residence). The exception is a municipal-country community. In such case the community can be the same only in case when the previous residence was the municipal part of community and the current residence is the country part (or the other way round)

3.In point d write the month and year of the beginning and end of the absence.

Question 7. What was the name of the country of your previous residence? [p. 61]

For other persons it is the reason of arrival to the current place of residence. In case of children write the reason of changing the place of residence by the parents.

Question 10. What was your source of maintenance at the previous place of residence? [p. 62]

1.Write an X next to one of the symbols describing the person?s main source of maintenance in the previous place of residence (described in Questionnaire M). For persons dependent on other people write a symbol of the source of maintenance of a person earning one?s livelihood in the previous place of residence.

2.The source of maintenance should be determined according to the rules described in the guidelines to question 30 in Questionnaire A, in section II of the instruction.

Question 11. Is the current place of stay your destination residence? [p. 62]

1.In this question determine whether the person has any migration plans or assumes that they will live in the community permanently.

2.If the person intends to change the place of residence (answer 2) ask this person to give reasons of such intention. Give symbols to the reasons just as in question 9 and write them in the grids in the order of importance. One, two or three reasons may occur.

For people with further migration plans end the interview here

Question 12. Which reasons could cause your decision of changing the place of residence? [p. 62]

Question 12 should be answered by persons who currently do not have any migration plans (in question 11 answers 1 or 3 have been selected). Determine which reasons could cause a change of decision about the change of the place of residence. The means of determining and filling in the reasons are the same as in question 11. If the person states that no reason could change the decision about the place of residence, write 90.

Part VI. Female Fertility -- Questionnaire D [p. 62-64]

In every selected dwelling or an occupied other living quarter a separate Questionnaire D should be filled for every woman fulfilling the following conditions:

A woman should live in the dwelling permanently or stay there longer than 2 months,

A woman is 16 years of age or more (was born before 21st of May 1986) regardless her marital status.

Page 33

The research should not be carried (the Questionnaire D) should not be filled in any collective living quarter.

A women can choose either she wants to fill in the form or not -- the participation in the research is voluntary. Nevertheless the enumerator should encourage every woman to participate in the research and answer the questions.

Questionnaire D should be filled after registering all the members of the household and after filling the Questionnaire A.

Identification and address data (questions 1-7) [p. 63]

1. The following information should be copied from Questionnaire A to Questionnaire D:

Identification number,

Address data -- questions 1-4,

The number of the person form the personal Questionnaire A-- the number should be listed in question 6 of the Questionnaire D.

2. In question 7 the number of Questionnaire D should be listed. The numbering should start from 1 in every single flat.

If an additional Questionnaire D was filled for a woman, the number of additional forms filled should be listed on the main Questionnaire D (7a).

3. In case of refusal to answer the questions listed in Questionnaire D, a separate Questionnaire D (identification number, questions 1-4, 6 and 7) should be filled for every woman who refused to participate in the research. The reason for refusing should also be written down.

4. If there is not any woman in a dwelling or the women present do not fulfill the stated conditions -- only one Questionnaire D should be filled giving the identification number and answers for questions 1-4 and the reason for not filling the form.

Questions 8-14 [p. 63-64]

1. Questions 8-14 must be answered personally. The Questionnaire May be filled by the enumerator on the basis of the answers given by the woman or a woman may fill the Form herself (then the enumerator should provide the woman with all the relevant information).

2. A woman can answer all the questions 8-14 (full answer) or decide not to answer some of them (partial answers). If a woman is reluctant to answer a question the enumerator should move on to the next question.

Question 10. Are you or have you ever been married or common-law partner? [p. 63]

If a woman is or has been married or common-law partner (is not married to a partner) the answer 1 should be indicated and the next question asked should be question 11. If not the answer 2 should be indicated and the next question asked should be question 12.

The number of all the live born children should be listed, regardless if the children are now living or died, if they live with the woman or separately or if they are single or have their own families. If a woman has never given birth to a live born child -- the answer should be 0 and the next question asked should be 14.

Question 13. Please give the information of all live born children [p. 64]

1. In a table the information of every live born child should be given. The number of children listed in the table should be equal to the number of live born children given in question 12. The children should be listed chronologically -- starting form the first one born.

2. In the first column the number of the child should be given.

3. Asking a woman to give the name of the child may make it easier for her to recall the exact information regarding that child. If a live born child died before being given a name -- symbol NN should be listed instead of a name in column 2.

Question 14. Are you going to give birth to a child or more children? [p. 64]
