</p><p>The Ministry of Defence (MOD) has a robust and effective resettlement system
in place which utilises the highly successful Career Transition Partnership (CTP).
All personnel are eligible for the CTP resettlement provision including those medically
discharged, or leaving the Armed Forces due to redundancy. These free resettlement
services are offered to all ranks and ages of Service personnel and offers flexible
support which can be accessed two years before discharge, through to two years post
discharge in order to ensure that making the transition to civilian life is as smooth
as possible.</p><p> </p><p>The resettlement process includes the provision of housing
advice via the Joint Service Housing Advice Office (JSHAO). The past three years JSHAO
statistics are given below:</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p>Financial
Year 2013-14</p></td><td><p>Financial Year 2014-15</p></td><td><p>Financial Year 2015-16</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Housing
Advice Briefs Delivered</p></td><td><p>55</p></td><td><p>56</p></td><td><p>54</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Number
of Army Attendees</p></td><td><p>No figures available</p></td><td><p>547</p></td><td><p>442</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Army
Enquiries</p></td><td><p>No figures available</p></td><td><p>258</p></td><td><p>214</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p>
</p><p>Please note that it is not possible to determine the age of those who attended
these briefs. Figures were not broken down by Service prior to Financial Year 2014-15.</p><p>
</p><p>The JSHAO provides specific housing information and advice to encourage Service
personnel and their families to consider their civilian housing options at any point
in their career. This is to ensure that those leaving the Services have an understanding
of the civilian housing options available to them and the differing financial implications
when occupying civilian housing compared to Service accommodation.</p><p> </p><p>The
MOD also works closely with the Department for Communities and Local Government and
the Devolved Administrations to ensure Service personnel do not experience disadvantage
as a result of their military service when applying for social housing.</p><p> </p><p>
