Interviewer instructions

Questions for usual members of households
Questions P09 to P013 should only be asked to the usual members of that household.

P09. Religion
Ask respondents about the type of religion. There are cases when a child's religion is not known. If the husband and his wife belong to different religions, you should assign the child the religion of the mother. If both parents belong to the same religion then consider the child as belonging to their religion too. Shade the appropriate code of religion of each person in the household.

Example: If the Religion is Christian, it should be assigned code 3.
