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'.

115. Once you have established the religion of the head of the household you may,
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. Thus, if the head and everyone else in the household are of the Methodist Church you should write 'Christian Methodist' for the head and you may write 'CM' for the rest.
