- Cases proceeding to court
- Cases resulting in an eviction order
- Cases resulting in an abandoned dwelling
- Cases resulting in an eviction
- Post decree tenancy at same dwelling (technical eviction) - 2009-10 onwards
Housing Lists
Information on changes in local authority housing lists and common housing registers for financial years 2000-01 to current year are collected each year form local authorities via the Housing Statistics Annual Return form.
This includes a snapshot figure showing the number of applicants on local authority or common housing registers at end March each year.
Vacant Stock
Local authority dwellings can be vacant for a variety of reasons, such as being part of a planned disposal or modernisation/repair programme, or in low demand areas.
Information on local authority owned vacant stock is collected form each local authority through the Housing Statistics Annual Return.
Figures on vacant dwellings are broken down by reason for vacancy, and length of time the property has been vacant.
