Interviewer instructions
The kitchen/kitchenette (item 8).

29. The kitchen is a room, or part of a room (of at least 4 square meters in area and at least 2 meters high) that has been designated and equipped for the preparation of the meals, situated inside the dwelling, or outside, having adequate cooking facilities related to activities for the preparation of the meals.

The kitchenette, is the space designated to be used for the preparation of the meals, situated inside the dwelling, or outside of it, equipped with the necessary utilities for cooking, having a surface less than 4 square meters.

Will be not considered kitchen: the space designated for living, provided with a niche for cooking.

The way of recording:


-- the entry x will be recorded in the box for code 1 when the kitchen is located indoor the dwelling;
-- the entry x will be recorded in the box for code 2 when the kitchen is located outdoor of the dwelling;
-- the entry x will be recorded in the box for code 3 when the household states that the dwelling does not have a designated space for the kitchen.
-- For item 8.2 -- it will be recorded the surface of the kitchen/kitchenette, established on the basis of the indoor surface of this, measured at the floor level, or on the basis of available documents existing to the population (the design from the buying /selling contract, or renting contract, etc). The kitchen's surface will be recorded similarly as in the cases of the items 6,7, in square meters, with no decimals.


Particular situations:


-- when a single room has a double function, as kitchen and living room (example a comfort IV apartment) this room is considered as a living room (see the particular situations on the paragraph 27);
-- If the dwelling has more than one room, but no kitchen is available, then the space used for this purpose will be considered as kitchen (for example: if in a dwelling the entrance "tinda" is permanently used as kitchen -- because the dwelling has no other kitchen -- "tinda" will be recorded on the form at the item 8 -- kitchen/kitchenette);
-- the dwellings having only summer-time kitchen, and during the winter the cooking is taking place in one of the living rooms, is considered without kitchen; exception are so called "summer-time kitchens "located outdoor of dwelling, build up by using strong materials (bricks, beams, etc.), and used all around the year for cooking the meals;
-- for the dwellings having several kitchens, only one of them will be recorded, namely the best equipped and having the largest surface.
