Since 2013/14, the One Public Estate programme has directly supported the release of £41.96m in capital receipts from local authority-owned land and property. One Public Estate partnerships must provide accompanying evidence when reporting benefits to the programme. A higher number of capital receipts has currently been reported and is undergoing validation. As such, the total number of capital receipts delivered to date is expected to rise.

One Public Estate has previously released total verified data to media outlets and will publish up-to-date data in future programme publications.

One Public Estate partnerships are made up of multiple public sector partners and led by local authorities. Data is collected at a partnership level and the programme does not hold information on capital receipts raised by individual local authorities. To provide as much data as possible, the table below sets out local government capital receipts raised by One Public Estate partnerships.
