Details

This statistical release presents the National Statistics on the stock owned by local authority registered providers in England on 31 March 2021. Based on data from the Regulator of Social Housing’s Local Authority Data Return, it provides details of local authority registered provider owned stock and details rents reported for low cost rental stock (social and Affordable Rents).

The release comprises a briefing note, a dynamic look-up tool (Excel based) allowing users to view details of stock in individual local authority areas and regions, additional data tables, raw data from the LADR and technical documentation.

The statistics derived from the LADR data and published as local authority registered provider social housing stock and rents in England are considered by the United Kingdom Statistics Authority’s regulatory arm – the Office for Statistics Regulation – to have met the highest standards of trustworthiness, quality and public value, and are considered a national statistic. For more information see the data quality and methodology note.

The responsible statistician for this statistical release was Amanda Hall. The lead official was Will Perry.

These statistics are based on data from the LADR. This return, which was collected by the RSH for the first time in 2020, collects data on stock size, types, location and rents as at 31 March. All registered local authority providers of social housing in England are required to complete the LADR, providing the regulator with data on stock and rent levels in order that it may regulate social housing rents.

Prior to 2020, the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (formerly MHCLG) published similar statistics on stock and rents for local authorities based on data collected through their Local Authority Housing Statistic. The differences in collection methodology between the LADR and LAHS and the statistical methodology employed between MHCLG, DLUHC and RSH statistical releases are explored in detail in the technical notes.

Statistical queries on this publication should be directed to the Referrals and Regulatory Enquiries team on 0300 124 5225 or mail enquiries@rsh.gov.uk.

Users are encouraged to provide comments and feedback on how these statistics are used and how they meet their needs either through our feedback rating icons on all published documents or through direct email contact (please send these entitled “LARP statistics feedback” to enquiries@rsh.gov.uk).

An accessible HTML summary of the key findings from the report has been included on this page. If you require any further information, please contact enquiries@rsh.gov.uk.
