<p><span class="em">Question 3 - Does the dwelling have a toilet?</span>
<br />[There is an image of the box for question 3]
<br />The term discharge mechanism refers to the flush valve, flow meter, etc., or rather the mechanical system for flushing water inside the toilet.
<br />Dwellings with outdoor toilets or buildings whose landings have a toilet for exclusive use by the dwelling are considered as having a toilet, choosing either "Yes, with a discharge mechanism" or "Yes, without a discharge mechanism depending on the situation.
<br />On the other hand, there could be a building whose toilet is on the landing for use by two dwellings, in which case the answer should be "No, but there is running water in the building".
