Interviewer instructions
3. Instructions for filling in Part B:
(a) When the questionnaire is not filled in at your home address, e.g. when a family is away from home on holiday, the amenities which are at your disposal at the home address must be listed. If a family member is temporarily absent from the home address, but other family members are at home, this part must not be filled in by him/her, but must be filled in by a member of the family at his/her home address. The latter must then also include amenities which may be with the absentee, e.g. a car, a radio, etc. However, if a family member is away from home on a semipermanent basis, (e.g. working elsewhere, at boarding school, etc.) the amenities which are at the disposal of that person should be listed by him/her and not by other family members at the home dwelling.
(b) Vehicles belonging to the employers of individuals, but at the full-time disposla of the employees should also be included against "motor car/combi/bakkie".
