Council Housing: Sales
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, how many (a) homes have been purchased through the council homes acquisition programme and (b) former homes bought under right to buy have been purchased back by local authorities since 2023.
Answered by Matthew Pennycook
Data on the number of homes purchased specifically through the council homes acquisition programme and on the number of homes sold under right to buy subsequently purchased back by local authorities, is not collected centrally.
The number of all acquisitions by councils can be found in the Affordable Housing Supply open data, which can be found on gov.uk here.
