Affordable Housing Supply Programme statistics reflect the broader supply of affordable homes (i.e., for social rent, affordable rent, and affordable home ownership), and include off the shelf purchases and rehabilitations as well as new builds. The statistics reflect the number of affordable homes delivered that have received some form of government support through loans, grant or guarantees.
Approvals, starts, and completions are all measured for the Affordable Housing Supply Programme. The latest data as well as further information on affordable housing supply statistics can be found in the quarterly housing publication series.
Financial Year Local authority level figures are published separately in Scottish Government Affordable Housing Supply Programme Out-Turn Reports.
