Housing Revenue Accounts record mainly income from and spending on council houses, but also cover related income and spending charged by councils to the account. Over the period of this report 6 councils transferred their housing stock to the housing association sector, the largest of these being Glasgow from 2003-04 1. These transfers affect comparisons over time.
