(H-06) Toilet facilities: What is the main type of toilet facility available for use by this household?
Read out types of toilet facilities.

If more than one facility, mark the one that is most frequently used.

A chemical toilet is a toilet consisting of a seat or bowl attached to a container holding a chemical solution that changes waste into sludge/mud.

A dry toilet is a simple pit latrine that does not need water to function. It consists of a hole in the ground that can be covered when full or emptied for re-use after a period of stabilization. It may or may not have a
