Mr. Ernie Ross

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what information he has on housing tenure by age group from the 1981 census.

Mr. John MacKay

Private households with usual residents are classified by age of head of household by tenure in table 12 of the 1981 Census Housing and Household Report, a copy of which is in the Library. This information is available for Scotland only.

An unpublished table—among those referred to on page xii of the above report—is available from the Registrar General for Scotland in which residents in private households are classified by age and by tenure, for Scotland, central Clydeside conurbation, remainder of Scotland, regions, islands areas and districts.
