B. Access and use of public services [do not read out]

Q6. [ASK ALL FOR EACH SERVICE] I have a list of 11 public services that some people might think are

important, for example, because they help them with their everyday life or contribute to friendlier

neighbourhoods.

By public services  I mean both public and subsidised private services.

Can you please tell me how important each one of the ser vices is to your needs?

Please use a scale from 1 to 10, where 1 means that the services is not impor tant at all and 10

means that it is very import ant.

You can use the numbers in between to express intermediate levels of relevance.

where 1 means that to your knowledge you have no access to the service at all and 10 means you

have full access.

You can use the numbers in between to express other intermediate levels of access.

By access I mean whether the public service exists, whether it can be reached and whether you can

aord it. In case you cannot use the service for one of these reasons, it means it is not accessible

to you.
