§ Mr. ArmstrongAvailable estimates of dwelling stock in Great Britain at the end of 1977 indicate that about 3.0 million dwellings representing 14.5 per cent. of the stock were rented from private owners, housing associations and with employment tenure categories. Housing association dwellings account for about 1 per cent. of the stock. Corresponding 359W figures for earlier years appear in Table XI of Housing and Construction Statistics issue 21.
