Question 12, 12a and 12b -- Five years ago

Question 12 has three parts i.e. 12, 12a, 12b. Everyone answers the first part. Those who answer "No" must answer the other two parts as well. Everyone else goes to Question 13.


P-12 "Five years ago (at the time of Census '96), was (the person) living in this place (i.e. this suburb, ward, township, village, farm, informal settlement)?"

If the answer is "Yes" dot the Y box, if "No" dot the N box. Dot the box marked B for people who were not alive at the time of the last census (B = born after October 1996).

[P. 44]

The main issue here is, what counts as a move? Again the question refers to a very small area -- the sub-place. If the person lived in the same dwelling 5 years ago the answer is "Yes". If the respondent has moved within the same "sub-place" from one house to another, the answer should also be "Yes" because we do not count short-distance residential moves for this question. If the person was living in a different sub-place from the one on the front of the 09 book, the answer is "No".

If "Yes" or born after October 96 skip P-12a and P-12b and go to Question P-13.

If "No" go to Questions P-12a and P-12b.

(P-16) Five years ago: Was (the person) living in this dwelling in October 2001?
Note should be taken that this question refers to any movement, no matter how close the original place is to the new one, including a move from one dwelling unit to another on the same stand or in the same block of flats.

Option 3 would only be marked if the child was born after October 2001.
Please note the skip instruction, if the answer is "No, code 2", continue to P-17 but if either of the other options is selected (Yes, code 1, or Born after October 2001, code 3), Go to P-21.

If the person has moved more than once in the last 5 years, give the details of the last move only.
