CHALLENGING YEAR: NHBC commercial director Richard Tamayo.
The decline echoed the drop in public sector housing registrations, which fell from 36,680 in 2011, to 26,390 last year.
However, the level of private house-building in the UK was stable, with 78,120 new homes registered, compared with 78,250 in the previous year.
