Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:
To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, what estimate he has made of the number of first-time home buyers in Yorkshire and the Humber in each of the last 10 years.
The Department’s English Housing Survey provides estimates of the number of recent (bought within the last three years) first time buyers in England. The latest figures can be found in AT1.6 here: https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/501068/2014-15_Section_1_Households_tables_and_figures_FINAL.xlsx
