answer text <p>No compensation has been paid to Service personnel due to poor housing conditions. The Ministry of Defence only allocates properties that meet the Decent Homes Standard as a minimum condition. In April 2017, a compensation scheme was introduced to provide recompense to Service families in two key areas – missed maintenance appointments and significant defects encountered at Move-In to a new property. Details of these payments are given below.</p><p> </p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p> </p></td><td colspan="2"><p><strong>2017-18</strong></p></td><td colspan="2"><p><strong>2018-19</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p><strong>Value</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>No of Claims</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Value</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>No of Claims</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Missed Maintenance appointments</p></td><td><p>£102,920</p></td><td><p>3,058</p></td><td><p>£99,570</p></td><td><p>2,926</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Significant Defects at Move-In</p></td><td><p>£18,480</p></td><td><p>232</p></td><td><p>£9,300</p></td><td><p>121</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p>

answer text <p>Planned changes outlined in the Better Defence Estate Strategy, published in November 2016, have led to the decision by Babcock to transfer the repair functions from Colchester to other locations, with the creation of In-barracks equipment support teams. Discussions routinely take place between the Ministry of Defence and Babcock as part of the Service Provision and Transformation Contract. There is no contractual obligation on Babcock to maintain a prescribed geographical footprint when delivering the repair function, therefore the withdrawl is compliant with this contract.</p> more like this
