Interviewer instructions
<svar a="all" v="ZA01A420 ZA01A421 ZA01A422 ZA01A476 ZA01A480 ZA01A482"><span class="em">Question P-11 and 11a -- Usually live</span><br /><br />This question also has two parts i.e. P-11 and P-11a.The first part asks if the person usually lives in this household. People who answer "Yes" can move straight on to Question 12. People who say "No" must answer the second part of the question, P-11a.<br /><br /><span class="em">P-11 "Does (the person) usually live in this household for at least four nights a week?"</span><br /><br />If "Yes" skip P-11a and go to P-12, if "No" ask Question P-11a.<br /><br /><span class="em">P-11a "Where does (the person) usually live?"</span><br /><br />The purpose of this question is to identify visitors and exclude them from data about total household income, or data about the number of people who live in a particular place.<br /><br />If the person does not usually live in this dwelling but lives in the same sub-place, dot the S box (S = Same).<br /><br /><span class="pg">[P. 43]</span><br /><br />If the person usually lives in a different place, write the name of the main place and the name of the sub-place in the spaces provided, e.g. Pretoria, Arcadia; or Kutama, Tshikwarane. One place name is not sufficient for coding purposes.<br /><br /><div class="i1"><span class="em">Main place and sub-place</span><br />This is the first question that brings in the concepts of main place and sub-place. So far we have only needed province or country. Now we have to write sufficient information to pinpoint local places.<br /><br />A main place is a city, town, township, tribal authority or administrative area.<br /><br />A sub-place is a suburb, section of a township, smallholding, village, subvillage, ward or informal settlement.<br /><br />On the front of the questionnaire for sub-place we wrote the most local name used by the household. For this question, and other questions asking for main place and sub-place, we must be a little more careful, as some local names can occur more than once within a main place.<br /><br />For more details, see Appendix 6, which also give examples within the new metros.</div><br /><br />There are also two boxes for the abbreviation of the province, as some place names occur in more than one province. Use the following two-letter abbreviations: EC, FS, GP, KN, MP, NC, NP, NW, WC.<br /><br /><span class="em"> National Bureau</span>: Write the main place in the main place row and the sub-place in the sub-place row. Do not continue writing the main place in the sub-place row if the name is too long. Just write as many letters as will fit, as we did for religion.<br /><br />If the person usually lives <span class="em">abroad</span>, ask for the name of the <span class="em">country</span> and write it in the space provided. Write the name of the country, not of the city or the province.<br /></svar>
