Housing supply: indicators of new supply statistics
This collection brings together all documents relating to housing supply: indicators of new supply statistics.
The national statistics on housing supply: indicators of new supply are released every 3 months.
From 30 September 2020 the title of the release changed from ‘House building: new build dwellings’ to ‘Housing supply: indicators of new supply’.
MHCLG has produced a one page guide to housing statistics which shows users how these figures relate to other releases.
The quarterly publication consists of a report and a set of accompanying excel data tables detailing key high level changes since the previous quarter. The tables and report are together known as the statistical release and are always listed at the top, with the most recent first.
The new data published in the release are also incorporated into the detailed data tables (known as ‘live tables’) which provide further breakdowns, including house building statistics for local authorities. There are also tables with data on house building going back further in time than the tables forming part of the release.
The live tables also incorporate revisions if improved information is provided at a later date and will always contain the latest data, whereas previous statistical releases are not revised in the light of new data, but left as they were at publication.
Local authorities compiling this data or other interested parties may wish to see notes and definitions for house building, which includes P2 guidance notes.
