Interviewer instructions
13. Indicate the total number of rooms used by the household (NTP)
87. The census enumerator (AR) must visit all the buildings which are part of the dwelling unit of the household, and count all the rooms that are available to the household members. He or she will write the total number (with 2 digits) in the appropriate box.

88. In order to count the number of rooms, here is the definition of a room that the census enumerator (AR) shall keep in mind:

89. Are counted as rooms: the bedroom, the living room or the dining room, whatever their footage, as well as the kitchens and the storage room if their size is large enough to be enable a person to sleep in it. The corridors, the verandas, the bathrooms and the restrooms or other premises shall not be counted as rooms.

90. If a room is occupied by two or more households (for instance the kitchen or the living room), it shall be attributed to only one household. Furthermore, it shall be noted that a hut (traditional or modern) is counted as one room if it is not divided into several well defined quarters.
