Note: Total figures for Scotland may not equal the sum of the waiting list and transfer list columns because some Local Authorities are unable to breakdown totals into these two areas. In most cases the figures are in respect of the register for the councils own housing and do not include any applicants on RSL lists, except in the case of 2 Local Authorities.
1. Some applicants will be on more than one Authority's list. However the extent to which this occurs is not known. The Scotland total will include an unquantifiable amount of double counting.
2. These LA's operate a Common Housing Register (combined Local Authority and Registered Social Landlord list).
3. The figures for Applicants on the Housing Register as at 31 March 2002 are as at 4 April 2002.
4. Register has not been reviewed for a considerable period of time so cannot provide a date when last reviewed.
5. Authority operates a combined waiting and transfer list.
6. The figure for Applicants on the Housing Register on 31 March 2002 is as at 22 March 2002.
7. The Scotland Waiting List and Transfer List totals are estimates . For those 4 councils which were unable to provide the split, estimates were made assuming the same proportion of applicants on each list as in the rest of Scotland.
