such communal establishment packs and individual packs as the Registrar General considers necessary for the purpose of the census;
a list, of the addresses of each communal establishment to which communal establishment packs and individual packs need to be delivered under this regulation; and

a sufficient number of individual packs to each of those establishments for the purpose of the census; and
communal establishment packs and individual packs to any other communal establishments that are located by any census officer.
The communal establishment coordinator’s duty to deliver packs shall be satisfied in relation to each communal establishment if the packs are delivered to the person for the time being in charge of the communal establishment. Where no such person is available, the communal establishment officer—
may leave the pack with a person at the communal establishment who can act on behalf of the prescribed person; or
may post the packs to the communal establishment address.
The person to whom packs are either delivered or received under paragraph (3) of this Regulation must hand an individual pack to—
every person who is a usual resident (as defined in article 2(2)(a) of the Census Order), at the premises or vessel and who appears to them to be capable of completing the questionnaire; or
to a relative or other person who has agreed to complete the questionnaire on behalf of a person who would be covered by sub-paragraph (a) but who is incapable of completing the questionnaire in accordance with the Census Order.
The communal establishment co-ordinator must make a record on the questionnaire tracking system of
each communal establishment pack and individual pack delivered in accordance with this regulation;
any additional communal establishments located by the communal establishment coordinator or any other census officer;
all relevant dates and details of prescribed persons in accordance with Regulation 8(1)(h); and
