Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what assessment he has made of the adequacy of housing for armed forces personnel.
This question was answered on 30th March 2023
The Ministry of Defence (MOD) fully recognises that the provision of safe, good quality and well-maintained accommodation is essential to operational output, and providing such accommodation is one of the MOD’s top priorities.
In the last seven years, MOD has invested more than £936 million in Service Family Accommodation (SFA) improvements. Currently, just under 97% of MOD SFA meet or exceed the Government’s Decent Homes Standard. Only these properties are allocated to Service families.
