I propose to take Questions Nos. 259 and 260 together.

The Social Housing Current Expenditure Programme (SHCEP) supports the delivery of social housing by providing financial support to local authorities for the long term leasing of houses and apartments from private owners and Approved Housing Bodies.

At end 2020, a total of 9,208 leased properties were supported under SHCEP across all leasing delivery programmes. Details of these dwellings by lease type, and their estimated cost in 2021, are set out in Table 1 below. Details of the annual cost of each lease type in each year from 2018 to 2020 is set out in Table 2 below. Data in relation to the cost of each lease type is not available for the period 2009 to 2017.

A breakdown of the total number of leased dwellings by lease type and local authority is set out in the attached spreadsheet for each year from 2014 to 2020. A detailed breakdown by lease type is not available for the period 2009 to 2013.

All data is based on local authority claims for operational agreements recorded on the Department's SHCEP financial management system. Any variations in data between operational figures and total output under leasing delivery streams is due to the time lag in the submission of claims to my Department in respect of new claims after delivery.
