Interviewer instructions
The question to be answered here is: “Who has access to the source?” Access may or may not be strictly according to legal right. In determining who has access, the actual situation prevailing, and not the legal right, is to be considered. The codes are:

Household alone ............................................................1
Shared by a restricted set of households .........................2
Community use ..............................................................3
Other ............................................................................9

“Shared by a restricted set of households” includes cases when a block of flats shares the source. “Community use” means that access in either unrestricted, or restricted to an identifiable community such as a caste or religious group. “Other” includes cases of access granted (to the sample household) by a neighbor to the neighbor's personal source, or access to a source meant for a block of flats obtained on the basis of good personal relations with some the residents of that block of flats.
