Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, for each of the past five years, what proportion of households eligible for social housing were able to access a social home, and what proportion remained on waiting lists.

Information in respect of households on housing registers is collected as an aggregated snapshot by local authority on 31 March each year. As a result, individual households cannot be tracked, and it is not possible to calculate the proportions requested.
