Interviewer instructions
<svar v="ZA01A423 ZA01A424 ZA01A425 ZA01A426"><span class="em">Question 12, 12a and 12b -- Five years ago</span><br /><br />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.<br /></svar></p>

<p><svar a="ZA01A423 ZA01A478 ZA01A481 ZA01A483" v="ZA01A423 ZA01A478 ZA01A481 ZA01A482 ZA01A483"><span class="em">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)?"</span><br /><br />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).<br /><br /><span class="pg">[P. 44]</span><br /><br />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 <span class="em">within</span> 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".<br /><br />If "Yes" or born after October 96 skip P-12a and P-12b and go to Question P-13.<br /><br />If "No" go to Questions P-12a and P-12b.<br /></svar>
