<span class="h3">Section 3 - Disability</span></p>
<p>The main objective of this section is to obtain information on the prevalence of certain types of disabilities among the population. This information can be utilized for monitoring and evaluating national programmes and services concerning the equalization of opportunity, rehabilitation and the prevention of disabilities.</p>
<p>Further, the information would assist in identifying the special needs of persons with disabilities, such as access to buildings, educational reform, training enhancement and employment opportunities.</p>

<p>Disability is defined as any restriction or lack of ability (resulting from an impairment) to perform an activity in the manner or within the range considered to be normal for a human being.</p>

Temporary conditions such as broken legs and other illnesses even though they may have restricted one's activities are not to be included.</p>
