SCREENER SHEET 1999 MAORI ELECTION STUDY

JOB NO.

Introduction Good (morning/afternoon/evening), my name is ...... from ACNielsen, the research company. We are conducting a survey on behalf of the New Zealand Election Study, which is an organisation of people from Waikato and Universities who are doing research about the 1999 General Election and related matters.

The part of the research we are concerned with involves only the Maori population, so we need to speak to a Maori person. Is there anyone in this household who is Maori and over age 18?

If the door-answerer is unsure, the definition of Maori is whether people consider themselves to be Maori.

Yes CONTINUE No TERMINATE

INTERVIEWER PLEASE HAND DOOR-ANSWERER THE NZES INTRODUCTORY LETTER AND ALLOW TIME TO READ.

It is very important that we interview a representative selection of Maori New Zealanders for this survey, so I have to ask you a few questions to help me select who in your household is the right person for me to talk to.

Can you please tell me the first name and month of birth of all Maori people aged 18 years and over who live here at the present time.
