Question
To ask the Scottish Government how many affordable homes have been built in the Glasgow Kelvin constituency since 2007, and how many of these have been for social housing.
Answer
The Scottish Government publishes figures relating to delivery of affordable homes across Scotland since April 2007, on a quarterly basis, which can be found online at:
https://www.gov.scot/publications/affordable-housing-supply-programme-completions-updates/ .
The Scottish Government does not hold information at a constituency level. However, between 1 April 2007 and 31 December 2022 there have been a total of 20,161 affordable homes delivered in Glasgow City, of which 14,560 have been social rented homes.
Homes provided through the Affordable Housing Supply Programme take various forms including; new build homes, rehabilitation projects, conversions and off-the-shelf purchases of both new and second hand homes, as identified in Strategic Housing Investment Plans (SHIPs) prepared annually by local authorities.
Figures to end of March 2023 are due to be published on 27 June 2023.
