Total new homes bonus grant
Data Type:Administrative
This dataset contains information on the total new homes bonus grant payable per year, offering a measure of the financial reward for housing growth provided through the New Homes Bonus
Time
Data are published on a financial year basis i.e. 2011/12
Dataset Quality
The data used in calculating the New Homes Bonus are also used in calculating each local authority's Council Tax Base for Formula Grant purposes so this effectively ensures a 100% response rate before the release is compiled. Figures are subjected to rigorous pre-defined validation tests both within the form itself, while the form is being completed by the authority, and also in DCLG when the data are received and stored.
These data are based on local authority administrative statistics.
Dataset Access and Use
The Council Taxbase figures on which these are based are freely available on the DCLG website. This is available via Open Government Licence.
Government attitudes to research use of their data appear favourable.
