INTRODUCTION AND CONSENT

Hello. My name is _______________________________________ and I am working with the MINISTRY OF HEALTH AND POPULATION. We are conducting a national survey about various health issues. We would very much appreciate your participation in this survey.
The survey usually takes between 20 and 30 minutes to complete.
As part of the survey we would first like to ask some questions about your household. All of the answers you give will be confidential. Participation in the survey is completely voluntary. If we should come to any question you don't want to answer, just let me know and I will go on to the next question; or you can stop the interview at any time. However, we hope you will participate in the survey since your views are important.
At this time, do you want to ask me anything about the survey? May I begin the interview now?
