The following specific instructions will allow the enumerator to carry out the work more efficiently.

Question 1: water supply

1. How to formulate the question

What type of water service does this household have access to?

The following definitions are taken into account: "1. Exclusive use running water" is the water service inside the dwelling used by only one household.

[p. 42]

When the household has running water that is shared between two or more households, the enumerator will circle the number "2. running water for multiple households". The service "3. public running water (outside of the dwelling)", should be circled when the household has access to running water that comes from a public source, installed for the community's use. If the household stores water from a well, river, lake, or spring; the numbers 4 or 5 are circled according to the case. The number "6. other" is circled for households that store water in another form, other the 5 cases explained above; e.g. rain water, water purchased from another household, water purchased from a tanker truck, etc.

2. How to record the data

The number corresponding to the answer given is circled.
