Andrew Stunell: Data on under-occupation is not available at local authority level. Under-occupied households are normally defined as those with two or more bedrooms more than required as assessed by the Bedroom Standard. On this basis it is estimated that 216,000 households with a household reference person of working age in social housing were under-occupying in 2007-08. It is estimated that 721,000 households with a household reference person of working age in social housing had one bedroom more than required. These estimates are based on data from the Survey of English Housing.
