The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what his target date is for the publication of the Military Housing Strategy.

Answered by Al Carns

Work on a new Military Housing Strategy has begun, with plans for publication in Summer 2025.

The Defence Infrastructure Organisation’s (DIO) Year three Review of the Future Defence Infrastructure Service Accommodation Contracts has started and is on target to complete by Summer 2025.

The target date for the launch of the Defence Homes Website is Spring 2025.

The Home Hub Portal will be launched this Spring to a closed user group of 200/300 families.

The launch date of a Home Hub Portal with Full Operating Capability to all families will follow at the end of the year, once actions following the closed user group testing have been completed.
