Chapter IV - Data on Persons Registered in Households


44. All persons in the household will be recorded in this chapter, regardless whether they were present in the household or absent at the census reference point - "0" hour on the night of January, 6 to 7, 1992, or whether persons had left the household temporarily or for a longer period to work, to study, or for some other reason. Persons temporarily present in the household at the census reference point will not be recorded in this chapter, but in Chapter V.



Q. 15 Nationality


62. The enumerator has the obligation to assure all conditions, in order that each person should declare freely, without any constraint, the nationality to which they belong.

For children below 14 years of age, the nationality will be that of their parents; if the parents are of different nationalities, record the one declared by the parents for their children. For persons who are deaf, dumb, or mentally ill, record the statements of those who are living together with these persons.

Nationality should not be confused with mother tongue. Coincidence may exist, or not.

For persons declaring they belong to the Romanian nationality, mark an x in the right side box for code 10.

For persons declaring they belong to a nationality other than Romanian, record in the space provided the nationality as it was declared. The registration will be done exactly as it appears on the compilation form CN (see paragraph 102), but, nevertheless, also record the names of ethnic groups as is the case, such as: istroroman (Istroromanian), vlah (Romanian from Yugoslavia), ceangau, gagauz, ungur (Hungarian), neamt (German), hutul (Ukrainian) malorus (Russian), velicorus (Russian), crasovean, izraelit (Jew), toth (Slovak), - and respectively the other ethnics of European countries or other Continents (for example: Albanian, Austrian, Belgian, French, Italian, Spanish, Cuban, Argentinean, Egyptian, Algerian, Syrian, Lebanese, Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean etc.), observing strictly the enumerated person's declaration.

The enumerator will not code nationality, this operation being the duty of the chief enumerator.

Ethnicity (item 15)

62. The enumerator will record, as the person should freely declare to which ethnicity he belongs -- according to its option-by observing the fundamental right of the person.

[p. 43]

The census staff members have the obligation to assure all the conditions, in order that each person should declare freely, without any constraint the ethnicity to which he belongs.

The ethnicity should not be confounded with citizenship, or mother tongue. Coincidence may exists, or not with one of them, (or maybe with both).

The way of recording:

-- the mark x will be recorded on the right side box, for the code 10 -- for persons declaring as belonging to the Romanian ethnicity;
-- for the persons declaring as belonging to ethnicity other than Romanian -- on the provided space will be recorded the ethnicity as it was declared. The registration will be done exactly as it appears on the compilation form CER and on the "Code List of ethnicity" (see paragraph 122), but nevertheless will be recorded also, if is the case, the names of ethnics as: istroroman (Istroromanian), vlah (Romanian from Yugoslavia), meglenoroman (Romanian dialect from Meglen, from Macedonia), cici, ungur (Hungarian), neamt (German), hutul (Ukrainian) malorus (Russian), velicorus (Russian), izraelit (Jew), toth (Slovak), - and respectively the other ethnics of the European countries or from other Continents (for example: Albanian, Austrian, Belgian, French, Italian, Spanish, Cuban, Argentinean, Egyptian, Algerian, Syrian, Lebanese, Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean, etc.) observing strictly the enumerated person's declaration;
-- whether the enumerated person don't want to declare the ethnicity, the enumerator will record explicitly "non-declared "in the corresponding space. The enumerator will then proceed for codifying the ethnicity according to the list of ethnicities (paragraph 122).
