About this detailed group code
Detailed group pages are the end point of the main ASCCEG hierarchy. They are used when the cultural or ethnic label has been identified precisely enough for final coding.
If the source response is still broad or ambiguous, step back to the narrow group or broad group pages before settling on the final code.
