Questions and instructions
What all measures are normally taken to increase water supply when insufficient?
Value | Category | Cases | |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Water supplied by local authorities through tankers, etc. | 897 | 5.7% |
2 | Water supplied by charitable bodies etc | 105 | 0.7% |
3 | Water obtained from neighbors | 3471 | 22.2% |
4 | Water purchased by household | 476 | 3.0% |
5 | Other measures | 7209 | 46.0% |
9 | No measures | 3506 | 22.4% |
Warning: these figures indicate the number of cases found in the data file. They cannot be interpreted as summary statistics of the population of interest.
This item, like item 5, will be left blank for those answering “yes” for item 4. The codes are :
Water supplied by local authorities through tankers, etc. ..........1
Water supplied by charitable bodies etc . .................................2
Water obtained from neighbors ...............................................3
Water purchased by household ...............................................4
Other measures ......................................................................5
No measures ..........................................................................9
(I) The work “normally” in “normally taken” is important. If water scarcity arose 4 times in the last ten years but the local authorities supplied water only once, and no measures were taken on the remaining 3 occasions, then the normal situation is “no measures”, and code 6 should be entered.
(ii) If more than one code is applicable, that is, more than one of the types of measures listed are normally taken in time of water insufficiency, then the one which is used most by the sample household will be considered.
(iii) When the principal source gives insufficient drinking water, the household may start using a supplementary source. This will come under “other measures”.
