Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many homes his Department estimates will be built on developable defence land by 2030.

The Ministry of Defence (MOD) has set out there is long-term potential for 100,000 homes to be built on developable MOD land through a variety of land release and development programmes and innovative partnership models.

This will benefit the country, while ensuring our ‘Forces First’ principle, where current and former Service Personnel will have priority access to homes built on land previously owned by the MOD.

The current MOD land release pipeline is published and updated periodically, including estimates of housing unit potential and surplus site vacation date: Disposal database: House of Commons report - GOV.UK
