An 'unconcealed' case is one where the LS Member is in the same family as the Head of Household (1st person on form). A 'concealed' case is one where the LS Member is not in the same family as the Head of Household (1st person on form). For definitions see 1991 Census Appendix 20. |

| notes | Applies if the LS member is identified as head of family. To extract the variable both the LS member's and non member's files have to be examined. A derivation to output the variable irrespective of whether the LS member is head of family is available as follows: DERIVE FAMTLSM9 outputs FAMT901 (family type of LS member's family). |
