Dear Emma,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. At first the decision had been taken to move it from our core module to a rotating module and not to be asked in Wave 12. But due the pandemic and the importance of these variables, these were put back in from Jul-Aug 2020. This is not reflected in the "Universe" for these questions in the questionnaire - we are sorry about that. We will update the variable notes to reflect this.

Also, the -9 values for these variables should be -8.

You can check the interview dates (intdaty_dv intdatm_dv) or sample months (month) for the cases with values -8 and -9.

Hope this help.

Best wishes,
Alita
