<br />120. It is absolutely important that this information is collected as accurately as possible. These questions apply to everybody in the household. You must be particularly careful to distinguish between actual disability and other forms of illnesses.</p>
<p>121. For example, you may be told that a member of the household has had tuberculosis or has been suffering from backache or stomach pains for a very long time. These are not disabilities for the purpose of these questions. It may be necessary to see the persons who have been reported as being disabled. This will give you an opportunity to determine whether the person(s) is/are disabled according to the specifications below.</p>
<p>122. Somebody is disabled if he/she is blind, crippled, deaf, dumb, mentally retarded, lost limb(s), speech impaired, is an albino, etc.</p>

Before you make any entry be sure that you are satisfied that the type of disability falls within the prescribed categories.
