Private Sector Housing Improvement and Repair Grants
There are two sources of information on private sector grants for improvement and repair:
The quarterly summary return (IMP1A) - Collects information on the number of dwellings on which final grant is paid, the amount paid and the type of grant involved.
The monthly case based return (IMP1B) - Collects information on improvement grants that have been approved for various types of work to private sector housing. The figures are different from those in the IMP1A summary return because the IMP1B is based on grants approved rather than grants paid.
Please note the distinction between the type of grant (in IMP1A) and the work type (in IMP1B). These are not the same. Users should read the notes pages within each spreadsheet for guidance.
Housing repair and improvement grants approved (all from IMP1B) - The first four tables below give a breakdown of grants by work type. Work types have changed a number of times over the years and so a consistent time series can not be produced (apart from disabled adaptations).
- Local authority tables, part 1
Number and total amount of grant approved, by old district council, for each work type, 1985-86 to 1995-96 - Local authority tables, part 2
Number and total amount of grant approved, by local authority, for each work type, 1996-97 to 1999-00 - Local authority tables, part 3
Number and total amount of grant approved, by local authority, for each work type, 2000-01 to 2003-04 - Local authority tables, part 4
Number and total amount of grant approved, by local authority, for each work type, 2004-05 to current
The remaining tables cover the whole period from 1986-86 to current.
Note: In all improvement grant tables figures for the former New Towns are included in the appropriate district figures.
