The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what estimate he has made of the number of rental properties with an EPC rating of (a) A, (b) B, (c) C, (d) D and (e) E in Newcastle upon Tyne East and Wallsend constituency.

Answered by Matthew Pennycook

The Department publishes data through the English Housing Survey (EHS) on the EPC rating of properties by tenure for all of England (DA7101), and the EPC rating of properties across all tenures for the North East (DA7102). However, the English Housing Survey does not hold the data at the constituency level.
