§ Mr. Barry JonesTo ask the Secretary of State for Wales how many tenancies were provided by housing associations in each of the districts and boroughs of Wales in 1993; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. Gwilym JonesInformation on new lettings and re-lettings in the financial year 1993—94 are set out in the following table, taken from the report of the Welsh Federation of Housing Associations. It includes transfers by existing tenants to a new address—where no new tenancy is created—and mutual exchanges—transfers between existing tenants of different social landlords. Lettings in sheltered accommodation are included, but not lettings for special needs. The table also excludes shared ownership and deferred ownership tenancies.
