• The topical module on ANIMAL WELFARE (QD) was only asked in Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey and Croatia. In the EU member countries identical questions were surveyed in the framework of Eurobarometer 63.2 (ZA4234).  
• For those parts of the questionnaire (E-COMMUNICATIONS) where respondents are asked to answer for their household, the 'number of individuals in each household' was introduced as additional weighting criterion (W21 to W39), and the representative samples of individuals aged 15 and more converted into household samples. For more details, see the technical specifications annexed to the basic bilingual questionnaire.   
• The topical module on E-COMMUNICATIONS (QB) is partly a replication of a former IPSOS-INRA study outside the Eurobarometer framework: Telecoms Services Indicators 2004 (TSI-2004).
