The programme aims were to: provide reliable estimates of those requiring subsidised housing provision by local authorities and housing associations; identify more accurate indicators of need for subsidised housing for use in informing the allocation of capital resources to local authorities and housing associations; and to examine the extent to which the unmet need for subsidised housing provision can be met in the most cost-effective way.

This paper illustrates the usefulness of regular monitoring for an area-based system of long-term care for elderly people and people with a disability by presenting data which describes the combined effects of de-institutionalisation and population ageing. Data was collected between 1985 and 198 in Solna, Sweden by means of annual surveys involving registration of received services and assessment of needs and disability. The sample were all the residents of Solna, who, on the day of the survey were in receipt of long-term public medical and/or social services care from the public sector. Data was collected on demographic variables, actual and appropriate levels of care. The class of disability was based upon five different measures of disability. Reports changes in service provision and population over the four-year period.
