Loans, grants and other assistance: Owner occupiers - Local Authority expenditure on loans and other assistance (£000s) (8672) Metric type
- Help text
- This is the local authority expenditure on loans and other assistance (in £000s) of owner-occupier dwellings improved, during the reporting year. This includes assistance to dwellings outside the local authority area.
A loan is defined as any form of assistance which requires repayment at some point in the loan period. Where schemes are operated as part of a partnership the local authority should provide the best estimate of the number of dwellings improved and associated expenditure of loans. Include loans which are provided by the local authority but made through a third party. In this case, also include the annual payment by the local authority to the third party agency to fund the giving of the loans which is providing financial assistance for private sector renewal in its area. This includes works done through the powers you have under the Regulatory Reform (Housing Assistance) Order 2002. In general, money given out counts as a grant rather than as ‘other assistance’ if there is a clear end-point to the project for which the money was given. ‘Other assistance’ is usually an on-going project.
The number of dwellings improved should only include those where the loan has been completed (i.e. all instalment payments have been made). In contrast, expenditure figures should refer to when payments were made. For expenditure on loans figures, all payments made in the year, including any instalment payments, should be included.
