Details of the number of homes delivered under the Social Housing Leasing Programme in 2019 and to end Q2 2020 are set out in Tables 1 and 2.
Leasing delivery data for Q3 2020 is being collated at present and will be published on my Department's website as soon as that process is finalised.
The total expenditure for leasing in 2019 and up to end October 2020, together with the average cost of a new unit in 2020, is set out in Table 3. There are some further claims due into my Department in respect of 2019 and 2020 delivery.
