Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask Her Majesty's Government what plans they have to utiliseĀ (1) current, and (2) former, Ministry of Defence Service Family Accommodation units to house (a) individuals, and (b) families, fleeing the war in Ukraine.
Under the UK Government's 'Homes for Ukraine' scheme, as of 20 March 2022, over 150,000 expressions of interest have been received from individuals and organisations. The Ministry of Defence is assessing how the Department can contribute to the scheme, noting the unique nature of Service accommodation, which includes potential security implications where accommodation is 'behind the wire'.
