Section F: Living Conditions
This section seeks information on the living environment and touches on such aspects as access to electricity and toilets, sources of drinking water etc.

Responses to Questions 28 to 33 are pre-coded and you have to shade the correct response.

Q31 Water for drinking and cooking
The question asks for information on the:

a) Main water source; and
b) The distance to that water source, measured from the kitchen.

The option 7 'Other' under question 31 includes: water tank and bowser.

If the main source of water varies during the year, record the source most usually used and if the main source is "Piped water inside house", then the distance is not necessary, and is automatically coded as "1" on the questionnaire. Probe to make sure that you obtain the correct source of water for drinking and cooking.
