Baroness Hayman

The information available is for households living in Great Britain, an estimated 250,000 of whom owned or rented a second home in Great Britain in 1996–97. This figure excludes second homes owned or rented in Great Britain by people living abroad or in Northern Ireland. The information is from the Survey of English Housing and the ONS Omnibus Survey.
