The number of houses started and completed in Wales in the financial year 1966–67, 1967–68 and 1968–69 were as follows:

Private Sector Public Sector
Started:
1966–67 9,059 9,215
1967–68 10,540 9,401
1968–69 9,845 6,920

1967–68 9,449 10,693

It is too early to estimate how many will be started and completed in the financial year 1969–70.
