Help with housing costs

This chapter introduces a new table showing a wider measure of help with housing costs for households in all tenures over the years from 1990/91 onwards. Although it includes renovation grants, and the economic cost of right to buy discounts, it still shows the sharp decline in assistance for home owner households over the twelve years to 2002/03.

Table 2.6.1

Help with housing costs in the UK

Note: The majority of the tables in The Review contain UK-based figures, but sometimes figures for Great Britain are used depending upon the sources. All other tables will refer to the country(ies) concerned. Where English regional figures are shown, this is usually indicated in the title. Tables showing breakdowns between England, Wales, Scotland and/or Northern Ireland are indicated with a single *, and those showing international comparisons with two **.

Data in tables and figures is frequently rounded and/or updated and therefore will not always add up exactly.
