It popped through my letter box last week. Apparently everyone have had one and the gov't does it every 10 years (although I thought it was the CoE that did it?)
H1. Who lives in this house? Fair do's - the form is populating how many people who lives in my town and wider Britain.
H4. Who is staying in my house on precisely 27th March 2011? What the hell man. I put the answer as no-one, but what happens if I miraculously pull a 1-night stand? If I did pull the 1-night stand, or I had a relative/mate who had to stay at mine at short notice, I have now lied on the form, haven't I? And this is a form that is apparently meant to be followed and completed accurately by law.
H7. Type of house? Again, fair do's if they're collecting stats.
H9 & H10. How many rooms? How many bedrooms? Erm.. this isn't a council tax questionnaire. I am band A, thank you very much
But again fair do's if they don't have access to banding info, although I know a few web sites that can look it up.
1. It asks for my name again (person 1 on page 3 / H3).
5. Do I stay at another address for more than 30 days a year? I guess I go back to my parents a few weekends every year but why do they wanna know that?
13. My health? Very good / good / fair / bad / very bad? This is getting ridiculous.
20. What is your religion? This question is voluntary. Yay, we're privileged
23. Are your day-to-day activities limited because of health / disability? Disability living allowance anyone?
26-42. Info about my job. Ok for those who are working. The question is probably targeted at those who are not earning, sussing out drug dealers / NI and tax income evasion etc. Perhaps just ask for the NI number, as I think it does hold some details and will answer quite a few of the aforementioned questions. Same with persons 2, 3 and so on.
Do I get a prize for the 20 minutes of my life I'll never get back?
Seriously though, does anyone else think that this form is a bit OTT?
