I propose to take Questions Nos. 136 and 148 together.

Detail on the number of households qualified for social housing support in each local authority administrative area is provided in the annual statutory Summary of Social Housing Assessments (SSHA). The SSHA captures the total number of households qualified for social housing support across the country whose social housing need has not yet been met and helps better inform policy and plan for the delivery of the right types of social housing support. The most recently published summary for all counties, conducted in November 2020, is available at:

The 2021 SSHA process is underway and I expect to publish the summary report before end Q1, 2022.
