113. Write the religion and the denomination of the person - for example, 'Christian Methodist', 'Hindu - Arya Samaj' or Muslim - Ahmadiya', 'Sikh'.

114. If the person has no religion, write 'None'.

Ask,
'Are all members of the household of the same religion?'

116. If they are, you may write the initials rather than writing religion and denomination in full for all members of the household.
