Ms Oona King

To ask the Deputy Prime Minister pursuant to his answer of 16 December 2002,Official Report, column 612W, if he will publish a table showing households in England below the bedroom standard broken down by (a) region and (b) tenure for the year 2001–02. [89524]

Mr. McNulty

The answer given on 16 December 2002,Official Report, column 612W, to my hon. Friend, gave information on households in England below the bedroom standard by region and tenure averaged over the years 1999–2000, 2000–01 and 2001–02 in order to provide a sufficiently large sample. Information at regional level for single years is not held centrally and could be provided only at disproportionate cost.
