Figures for the number of starts and completions of new build dwellings split by local authority and tenure are published in the Departments live table 253.

The tenure captured in these statistics reflects the tenure of the developer building the dwelling rather than the intended final tenure, which can be different. In particular, there is a substantial quantity of affordable housing which is not captured because it is built in the private sector and then bought by local authorities and housing associations.

The Department produces affordable housing supply statistics which give a more detailed breakdown of the provision of affordable housing.

Live table 1011C can provide a breakdown of affordable housing completions by funding source and local authority.
