Interviewer instructions
I - Department, Administration, or Precinct of . . .

In each one of the forms the name of the Department, Administration or Precinct should be written down where the enumeration is taking place.

II - Municipality of. . .

The name of the Municipality where the enumerating is being done should be written down.

[p. 13]

III - Administrative Unit. . .

The name of the Administrative unit should be written down in all the forms that are used within this municipal division. Each time that the registering of a new form is begun, the name of the administrative unit should be obtained by asking for it.

Judicial Precinct

If you are doing the enumeration in the territory of a Police Inspectorate, the name of the Inspectorate should be written down.

IV - Administrative section

The Administrative section or rural fragment should be written down in all the forms that are used within this municipal division, observing the same recommendations that were given for writing down the name of the Administrative unit.

Hamlet of. . .

A group of houses of habitation forms a hamlet. Many of them have authority like Administrative unit or Police inspectorate, and others lack it. The name should be registered of all hamlets without authority that are more than 10 houses of habitation.

The name should be written down of all hamlets with authority, whatever the number of its houses of habitation.

Houses of habitation that are not grouped but rather are dispersed, do not form a hamlet and therefore should not be taken into account in this question.
