§ Mr. Ernie Rossasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what is the percentage of households in Scotland and the four Scottish cities which are (a) public sector, (b) owner-occupied and (c) privately rented.

The basis of the available22W figures is however not uniform in relation to Scotland and each city; in the following table, housing association dwellings are included in the Scotland and Glasgow figures under privately rented, whereas in the other three cities they are included under public sector:
