Amharc ar fhreagraThe Social Housing Current Expenditure Programme (SHCEP) supports the delivery of social housing by providing financial support to local authorities for the leasing of houses and apartments, including Part V leasing.
The average lease cost is calculated based on claims for operational new units submitted by local authorities and recorded on my Department’s SHCEP financial management system and does not necessarily represent the amount delivered in that period.
A breakdown by local authority of the average annual unit cost of Part V leasing for 2020, 2021 and to the end of Q3 2022 can be found in Table 1 below:
