This publication summarizes new housing supply and stock statistics in Scotland. It includes information on total new housing supply, local authority housing data (stock, lettings, evictions, and housing lists) until 31st March 2023, and the latest stock by tenure estimates until 31 March 2022.

The report combines published data on new build completions and affordable housing supply with new local authority data on housing stock and management. It also incorporates figures from other sources, like housing association stock levels from the Scottish Housing Regulator.

The statistics cover the financial years 2021-22 and 2022-23, along with historic trends.  Due to COVID-19 there has been a delay in this publication. Future publications are expected to return to the normal annual schedule.

The focus of this report will be on national trends. Data can be found for local authorities in the supporting excel tables.
