iv Net additions data for 2012/13 drawn from CLG data (Live Table 123) which differs from housing completions data, also collected
by CLG (Live Tables 253) due to alternative data collection methods. There are inconsistencies in the data sets which may explain
why figures for some Boroughs (e.g. Greenwich) show very low net additions.
