The Social Housing Current Expenditure Programme (SHCEP) supports the delivery of social housing by providing financial support to local authorities for the leasing of houses and apartments.

Leasing delivery figures include social homes secured under local authority long term leasing, enhanced leasing, approved housing body long term leasing, short term rent availability agreements, mortgage to rent (MTR) and the repair and leasing scheme (RLS).

Data on social housing leasing delivery can be found in the overview section of my Department's website, linked below. The annual social housing activity reports give a breakdown of the total leasing delivery by local authority for each individual year.

Delivery data for Q4 2022 is being collated at present and will be published as soon as that process is finalised.

Details regarding the new or second hand status of leased units are not held by my Department.
