Armed Forces: Housing
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what information his Department holds on the average time taken to complete call-outs for urgent repairs to single living accommodation for military personnel since 11 October 2025.
Answered by Luke Pollard
Nine in 10 military homes (over 40,000 houses) will be modernised or upgraded to new, higher standards, with 14,000 homes rebuilt or substantially refurbished, funded by the Government’s record uplift in Defence spending and the Strategic Defence Review’s £1.5 billion extra investment into military housing in this parliament.
