While the Department does not hold information on the number of Housing Assistance Payment (HAP) tenancies that moved directly into a social housing property, data is available in relation to the number of tenancies that moved from HAP to other forms of social housing support. The majority of these transfers would have been to local authority or approved housing body social housing.
The following table details the number of HAP tenancies that transferred to other forms of social housing, by local authority in the period 2016 – end Q3 2021. Information in relation to 2014 and 2015 is not available.
