Interviewer instructions

Questions 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4 in this section should be asked to all persons,
irrespective of age. Persons not attending school/classes at Q3.2 are required to
proceed to Q3.6, all persons attending school presently therefore are required to
answer questions Q3.1 to Q3.13. If a person can read but cannot write, he/she is
considered illiterate and the proper response is NO. This SLC/HBS will not include
rigorous testing of literacy; interviewers will have to use their judgment and
information from the respondent to assess each person. Literacy can be in any
language, not just the main or official language, provided it is commonly used in a
written form.
