HC Deb 21 May 1990 vol 173 c26W
Mr. Fearn

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment how many private rented sector units of accommodation there were in 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989 and 1990 to date.

Mr. Michael Spicer

Information about the numbers of dwellings rented privately, or with a job or business and about the numbers of dwellings rented from housing associations, is shown in table 2.22 of "Housing and Construction Statistics Part 2", No. 39. These figures show numbers at December 1988 and September 1989; figures for later periods are not yet available. A copy of this publication is available in the Library.
