HL Deb 10 April 2000 vol 612 cc20-1WA
Baroness Miller of Chilthorne Domer

asked Her Majesty's Government:

How many units of housing were provided by registered social landlords and local authorities in settlements of under 3,000 people in (a) 1997, (b) 1998 and (c) 1999; and how many are estimated to be provided in 2000. [HL1738]

Lord Whitty

The data for housing provision by registered social landlords in settlements of under 3,000 people relates to financial years. There were 1,664 completions in England in 1997–98 and 1,283 in 1998–99: figures for 1999–2000 are not yet available.

The department does not collect similar data from local authorities.
