In January 2017, I published details of the 2017 provisional social housing outputs, including details as to the number of social housing homes constructed in 2017. During last year, just under 26,000 households had their social housing need met, well ahead of the target of just over 21,000. Details are available on my Department's website at the following link:

The 2017 full year local authority construction outturn figures are currently being verified and finalised and will be published shortly. Details of the number of residential homes built by each local authority in 2018 will be published in the normal way in due course.
