The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, if he will make an estimate of the number of unoccupied dwellings in (a) Derbyshire and (b) High Peak constituency.

Answered by Matthew Pennycook

The department publishes data on vacant dwellings in live table 615 which can be found at this link: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistical-data-sets/live-tables-on-dwelling-stock-including-vacants. This data is collated from Council Taxbase data collected from local authorities.

Data for Derbyshire can be aggregated from the district level data. Data are not available at a constituency level.
