Local Authorities: Housing Sarah Teather To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government how many local authority owned homes were sold to (a) registered social landlords and (b) private landlords in each London borough in each of the last 10 years. Yvette Cooper The following table gives details of London boroughs who have sold their housing stock to the registered social landlord sector through large-scale voluntary transfer in the last 10 years. We could provide figures for small-scale voluntary only at disproportionate cost. We do not have any data on trickle transfers to registered social landlords; nor do we have data on how many local authority homes have been sold to private landlords. ------------------------------------- |LA name |Dwellings| ------------------------------------- |Total 1997 |0 | ------------------------------------- | | | ------------------------------------- |LB Lambeth |1,196 | ------------------------------------- |LB Bexley |8,215 | ------------------------------------- |LB Merton |1,018 | ------------------------------------- |LB Tower Hamlets |4,283 | ------------------------------------- |LB Hackney |951 | ------------------------------------- |LB Brent |1,481 | ------------------------------------- |Total 1998 |17,144 | ------------------------------------- | | | ------------------------------------- |LB Hackney |2,745 | ------------------------------------- |LB Hammersmith and Fulham|668 | ------------------------------------- |LB Enfield |1,194 | ------------------------------------- |LB Greenwich |1,280 | ------------------------------------- |LB Lambeth |4,777 | ------------------------------------- |LB Islington |1,386 | ------------------------------------- |Total 1999 |12,050 | ------------------------------------- | | | ------------------------------------- |LB Hackney |2,336 | ------------------------------------- |LB Tower Hamlets |1,551 | ------------------------------------- |LB Richmond |7,139 | ------------------------------------- |Total 2000 |11,026 | ------------------------------------- | | | ------------------------------------- |LB Tower Hamlets |1,859 | ------------------------------------- |Total 2001 |1,859 | ------------------------------------- | | | ------------------------------------- |LB Waltham Forest |2,242 | ------------------------------------- |LB Hackney |954 | ------------------------------------- |LB Harrow |518 | ------------------------------------- |Total 2002 |3,714 | ------------------------------------- | | | ------------------------------------- |LB Tower Hamlets |78 | ------------------------------------- |Total 2004 |78 | ------------------------------------- | | | ------------------------------------- |LB Islington |615 | ------------------------------------- |LB Lambeth |630 | ------------------------------------- |LB Tower Hamlets |3,111 | ------------------------------------- |Total 2005 |4,356 | ------------------------------------- | | | ------------------------------------- |LB Tower Hamlets |2,920 | ------------------------------------- |LB Lambeth |1,412 | ------------------------------------- |Total 2006 |4,332 | ------------------------------------- | | | ------------------------------------- |LB Lambeth |1,031 | ------------------------------------- |LB Sutton |524 | ------------------------------------- |LB Islington |502 | ------------------------------------- |LB Tower Hamlets |51 | ------------------------------------- |Total 2007 (to date) |2,108 | -------------------------------------
