The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, with reference to his Department's press release entitled Homes fit for heroes: Raft of new measures to improve military family housing, published on 18 April 2025, how many homes will be refurbished in addition to the first 1,000 announced in that release.

Answered by Al Carns

We are currently undertaking an extensive review of our entire Service Family Accommodation portfolio to determine how we will utilise our properties including those reacquired from Annington Homes Ltd. Until this review is completed, we are unable to provide details of our future intentions.

All options will be assessed during the review to ensure a strategic and structured approach is taken.
