The term "services", as used in this article, broadly refers to infrastructure (in particular, civil and electrical engineering infrastructure), and also the infrastructure elements such as schools, clinics and halls. The term "basic services" generally refers to RDP standards and levels of service. Services lower than the prescribed standards are referred to as "elementary services", or as no service.
