As I explained in my previous answer, the Taskforce is a technical advisory group to provide professional and expert knowledge on increasing institutional investment in the private rented sector and support new build schemes.<\/p>

It does not have any remit on broader policy on the private rented sector. It does not seek to \u2018represent' the views of any sector or group. The determination of government policy remains a matter for Ministers.<\/p>

Notwithstanding, the Taskforce has engaged with organisations representing private tenants and the broader private rented sector.<\/p>

The table below answers the noble Lady's question:<\/p>

<\/p>

Receipts arising in that year1<\/sup> from Right to Buy sales (or equivalents)2<\/sup> which are payable to HM Treasury (£ million)3<\/sup><\/p><\/td><\/tr>

120.85<\/sup><\/strong><\/p><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>

Notes<\/p>

1 <\/sup>Figures include the payable part of mortgage repayments and repayments of discounts paid in the current year in respect of Right to Buy sales made in previous years.<\/p>

2 <\/sup>For 2010-2011 and 2011-2012, figures include the payable part of receipts arising from all other disposals of dwellings. For 2012-2013 and 2013-2014, figures only include receipts arising from sales of dwellings to secure tenants which are below market value and some shared ownership sales.<\/p>

3<\/sup> All figures are provisional, though those for all years up to 2012-2013 have been audited which means that they are less likely to be amended.<\/p>

4<\/sup> Until the end of 2010-2011, receipts received by authorities which were debt-free on 31 March 2004 were payable not to HM Treasury but to the Department of Communities and Local Government and its predecessor departments.<\/p>

5<\/sup> The figure for 2013-2014 is only for the first three quarters of that year.<\/p>

For 2009-2010, receipts arising from the sale of dwellings received by local authorities that were not debt-free that were paid to HM Treasury amounted to £132.7 million<\/strong>. For 2008-2009, the equivalent figure was £135.9 million<\/strong>.<\/p>

The reinvigoration of Right to Buy since April 2012 has ensured, for the first time ever, that the receipts from the additional sales (those over what was forecast prior to the change) are reinvested to help fund new homes for affordable rent. So far, £300 million has been generated from additional sales and already over 2,000 homes have been started on site or acquired.<\/p>

We do not collect this information centrally. These are local schemes, and it is for local authorities to ensure that the effect on specific groups of council tax payers is proportionate and fair.<\/p>

The £100 million transition grant was a voluntary grant for the first year only of the new system of local council tax support. We have been clear from the outset that it was intended to give councils time to transition to the new localised regime and realise greater efficiencies such as cutting fraud and error, which cost £230 million in 2012-13.<\/p>

Spending on council tax benefit doubled under the last Government, costing taxpayers £4 billion a year \u2013 equivalent to almost £180 a year per household. Welfare reform is vital to tackle the budget deficit left by the last Administration. Our reforms to localise council tax support now give councils stronger incentives to support local firms, cut fraud, promote local enterprise and get people into work.<\/p>
