§ Sir George YoungThis detailed classification of landlords has been reported since January 1981, but I regret that these analyses could only be provided at disproportionate cost.
Available simpler analyses of rent registration cases appear for 1981 and 1982 in table 1.10 of "Housing and Construction Statistics No. 12" and for 1974 to 1980 in Table 128 of "Housing and Construction Statistics 1971–1981"; copies are available in the Library. Analyses for 1972 and 1973 in the latter publication are only partial.
