Interviewer instructions
The information about the type of latrine used by the household will be recorded in codes. If the household does not have any latrine facility, i.e. its members use open area as latrine, code 11 will be recorded. In a few areas, one may still comes across latrines that are serviced by scavengers. These are called service latrines. A latrine connected to underground sewerage system is called flush system latrine. A latrine connected to underground septic chambers will be considered as a septic tank latrine. A latrine connected to a pit dug in earth is called a pit latrine. If the household uses a latrine of any other type, code 99 will be recorded. The approach for deciding the public / community use, shared etc. is the same as in item 3 of this block
