Questions and instructions
Literal question
Why is(name's)birth not registered?
Interviewer instructions
Circle the code corresponding to the response. Note that although there might be more
than one reason for not registering a child, we need to get only one response, the most
important one according to the mother/primary caretaker. If the response is definitely not
one of the pre-coded responses, cirle '6' for 'Other' and specify the response in the space
provided.
