Military families are promised a bigger say over repairs
The Ministry of Defence has announced changes intended to give residents more influence over service-family housing.
Plans include local and national resident committees and a pilot in which residents sign off completed repairs. The announcement also looks ahead to a Defence Housing Service planned for April 2027. These are proposed arrangements and trials; the announcement does not show that repair standards have already improved.
