Details on the number of households qualified for social housing support in each housing authority area are provided in the statutory Summary of Social Housing Assessments (SSHA).  The most recent SSHA carried out in 2017, details the number of households on all local authority waiting lists as at 28 June 2017.

The results of the SSHA include breakdowns by each local authority across a range of categories. The results do not provide a breakdown of the numbers by electoral area and my Department does not hold such data.

The 2017 report also includes the results of the 2016 summary for comparative purpose. Full details in relation to the 2017 assessment are available on my Department's website at the following link:

.

The SSHA is now being carried out an annual basis and I expect the results of the 2018 summary to be available for publication later in the year.
