    2/108

    2 NOTES

    1.1 Persons Who JoinedInclude a baby born in the last 12 months to a household member.

    Tick the No box where the entire household had moved from a previous residence to this one in the last12 months (the household did not form a new household when it moved: it simply changed its location).

    1.2 Joining/Forming

    A household is formed when one or more people who previously lived with other people in one or morehouseholds become a household in their own right. For example, a newly married couple who each lived withtheir parents until their marriage, and who now live together alone, formed a household.

    A household is not formed when, for example, a couple marry and the wife moves into the dwelling which herhusband previously occupied. In that case, she joins her husbands household.

    This question can serve to alert you to the possibility of wedding expenses, maternity hospital fees, removalexpenses, etc, occurring later in the questionnaire.

    1.3 Persons Who LeftInclude household members who died or who otherwise permanently left the household in the last 12 months.

    1.4 This question can serve to alert you to the possibility of wedding expenses, funeral expenses, etc, occurringlater in this questionnaire.

    2.1 Type of DwellingIndicate type of dwelling as stated by respondent.

    For dwellings attached to or part of a business or shop the main purpose of the structure must be for abusiness or shop eg a flat attached to a dairy or a caretakers residence. It does not apply to a dwelling on afarm.

    Dwellings that may fall into categories 2 5 include flats, units, bedsits, townhouses, apartments and houses.

    2.2 RoomsEnter a number in each box, from 0 for none.

    Exclude any rooms occupied by another household, but include any rooms shared with other households.

    For a dwelling built in the open-living or split-level style, count room equivalents.

    Count a kitchen, but not a kitchenette. A kitchenette is a small area or alcove in a larger room. It would rarelybe found in a house, but would often be part of a bed-sitting room.

    A bed-sitting room should be specified as such under Other rooms.

    A detached bedroom (including a caravan used as such) adjacent to a private dwelling should be counted asa bedroom of the dwelling.

    2.5 Tenure

    Where a farmer or other business-person has formed a limited-liability company, and the company owns thedwelling, record tenure as Rent or as Rent-free, depending on whether or not the person pays rent to thecompany for the use of its dwelling. In Question 3.1 overleaf, tick the Employer-private box for such cases.

    Where a dwelling is jointly owned by the occupier and by a person such as an ex-spouse who is not a memberof this household, record tenure as:

    (i) Rent-free if the occupier pays neither rates, house insurance, nor mortgage repayments;

    (ii) Privately own it with mortgage if the occupier pays mortgage repayments;

    (iii) Privately own it without a mortgage if the occupier pays rates and/or house insurance, but not mortgagerepayments.

    Where a dwelling is owned by a family trust, record tenure as:

    (i) Pay rent for this dwelling if the occupier pays rent to the trust;

    (ii) Privately own it with a mortgage if the occupier pays mortgage repayments;

    (iii) Privately own it without a mortage if the occupier doesnt pay rent or mortgage repayments.

    4.2 (a) RatesIf the household has recently shifted to this property and has not yet received a rate demand there, thenrecord details of the latest rate demand for their previous property (if owned by them).

    If rates are paid by instalment, then record the amount of the latest instalment paid or payable (less anydiscount for early payment, beneficiaries, etc, plus any penalties for late payment), and determine the numberof instalments to be paid per year (these vary between councils from 1 to 12). However, the per annumamount may be recorded instead if it is more readily available.

    If rates were paid as an annual lump-sum, or if a recent rate demand is to be paid as a lump-sum amount, thenrecord the amount paid or payable, less any discount for lump-sum payment.

    In the case of rates covering the dwelling and either a farm or business, record the amount demanded for theproperty, even if paid out of the farms or businessfunds. At the processing stage, a proportion of the amountrecorded will be allocated to private expenditure for such cases.

    In some areas regional councils issue rate demands separate from, and additional to, local council rates.Record these in Q4.4.

    4.4 Water RatesInclude rates paid for excess or total water usage and which are not included in the amount recorded inQ4.2 (a).

    4.6 Other OutgoingsGround rent is paid when the dwelling is owner-occupied but the land on which it stands is rented or leased.Easement is a right-of-way over anothers ground.

    Lump sum payments to body corporates, retirement villages, etc which cover rates, insurance, maintenancepayments etc can be recorded here.

    4.7 Annual Amount PaidRecord the annual amount, not the amount of an instalment. If paid by instalment, then for Month Paidrecordthe month that the latest instalment was paid or is payable.

Also include any materials bought in the recallyear for that property, but which were not for site preparation or dwelling construction (eg fencing, concrete forpaths), whether paid before or after the date of occupancy (Page 21 does not cover such payments).Include purchases by household members for private properties not owned or rented by them (such as purchasesfor use at the property of the parents of a household member), unless the expenditure was reimbursed by theother household.

    11.5 (a) Item BoughtEnsure that the description of each item is sufficiently specific for it to be coded accurately (eg reinforcingsteel, fencing timber, concrete blocks, aluminium joinery).Separate the cost of combined purchases of materials into single items, using the respondents best estimateif necessary. Record only those items which cost $200 or more. For example, if paint and wallpaper werebought at one time for a total cost of $290, and the respondent thought that the wallpaper component wouldhave been over $200, then record Wallpaperand an estimate of how much the wallpaper came to. The paintcomponent would be ignored, because it would not have cost $200 or more.
