Notes
1. The table includes public utility societies (the forerunners of "housing associations") under early enactments, where the bodies concerned are still receiving subsidy under any Act.
2. Subsidy to a public utility society under the 1919 Act was calculated as a percentage of the loan charges on the capital cost of the scheme and was not a subsidy in respect of each house. Number of houses provided in these cases are not now readily available.
