HOUSING and WATER SUPPLY, SANITATION & HYGIENE (WASH)
Housing refers to the living accommodation or dwelling unit where a household resides. In the context of a Living Standards Measurement Survey, housing is assessed to determine the quality of living conditions , type of dwelling , and availability of basic facilities such as water supply, electricity, sanitation, and construction materials. Source of Drinking Water: Percentage of household by Source of drinking water (from where household obtained drinking water), expressed as a percentage of the total number of households. Iinformation has been collected on tap water, motorized pumping, hand pump, dug well , Spring \river\pond\stream\canal, tanker, mineral water and filtration plant.
277
Type of Toilet: Percentage of household by type of toilet, expressed as a percentage of the total number of household d. Iinformation has been collected on tap water, motorized pumpi ng, hand pump, dug well, Spring \river\pond\stream\canal, tanker, mineral water and filtration plant. Toilet is a fixture for defecation and urination, consisting of a bowl fitted with a hinged seat and connected to a waste pipe and a flushing apparatus. I n the questionnaire, response was recorded regarding the type of toilet used by the household. A toilet, which is used by the household and is situated in the yard, is considered as a toilet in the household. Categories: “Flush” consists of flush connected to public sewerage, flush connected to pit and flush to open drain while “non -Flush” contains dry raised latrine and dry pit latrine. Hand Washing: Percentage of Households with specific Place of Handwashing with soap, expressed as a percentage of the tot al number of households. Hand washing with soap as an effective, affordable way to prevent diseases and also an SDGs indicator (6.2.1b: Population with a basic handwashing facility: a device to contain, transport or regulate the flow of water to facilitate handwashing with soap and water in the household.)10. HIES (2024-25) collects information from households about the facility of specific place of Hand Washing with availability of Hand Washing Agent like Soap, any cleansing agent etc. Clean Fuel: Percentage of Households using Clean Fuel for cooking, heating and lighting, expressed as a percentage of the total number of households. Clean Fuels are defined as Technologies/Fuel used for cooking, heating and lighting by a household that is not hazardous for health. In developing countries, household typically rely on solid fuels such as Wood, Charcoal, Biomass or Kerosene Oil with inefficient technologies e.g., open fires, stoves, space heaters or lamps for cooking, lighting and heating.

ANNEXURE E – METHODOLOGY FOR COMPUTING CONSUMPTION QUINTILES Consumption quintiles are used to distinguish the population according to their welfare: poorest households are grouped together into the 1st quintile, those with higher consumption into the 2nd quintile, and so on. Five quintiles rank the population from the poorest 20% to the richest 20%. The main aim of quintiles is to analyse how social and economic indicato rs change in relation to people’s welfare. For instance, the government wants to know whether poorer households have access to basic services such as health facilities; immunization; schools & safe water etc. or whether there are significant differences be tween the poor and the rich. Furthermore, policy makers are interested to know how consumption patterns and income sources of poorer households are different from those of richer households. Estimates by quintiles describe distributional differences, thus representing an important tool of analysis. Quintiles are calculated for the four provinces together (Punjab, Sindh, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan) so that the first quintile contains households from all provinces with the same welfare. However, if on e province is relatively richer than others , its population will not be evenly distributed in each quintile, but mostly concentrated in the higher quintiles. Therefore, only at the overall level each quintile contains 20% of the population, but in urban areas, where people usually are richer, upper quintiles contain higher population percentages, and the opposite is true in rural areas. Consumption expenditure is used as a proxy to assess people’s welfare. Expenditure is calculated at the household level but it is adjusted by household size and its composition. This adjustment is necessary to assess a proper ranking of households. To facilitate understanding, following example is quoted. Imagine two households both with a monthly consumption expenditure of Rs. 3000. However, it would be wrong to say that both households enjoy the same welfare without considering their household size and composition. For instance, one household may be composed of one single individual whereas the other of five people.
