Data notes

Overview

Summary of dataset and variables

To measure progress, we include homes for social rent, intermediate rent and shared ownership. These units are delivered by registered social landlords, local authorities, and private sector providers (referred to as ‘others’). The figures also include housing units leased for more than one year to provide accommodation for homeless families although these do not fully meet the TAN 2 definition. The reported target figure excludes shared equity affordable housing units.

Data collection or calculation

The information presented here is collected via annual returns from Welsh social landlords (local authorities and registered social landlords) on the actual affordable housing provision delivered during each year. The collection also requests the estimated future provision for the following year.
