<p>The Ministry of Defence (MOD) provides accommodation to Service personnel and their
families as part of their terms and conditions of Service. Individuals cease to be
entitled to occupy Service Accommodation when they leave the Services. If necessary,
the MOD take action to recover possession of such property. <br><br>The level of notice
to be given in each case is set out in the Tri-Service Accommodation Regulations,
published as Joint Service Publication 464. In most cases, individuals are entitled
to 93 days notice to vacate. However, in some circumstances, including medical discharges
and compulsory redundancies, this entitlement can be extended by a further 93 days.
The shortest entitlement for personnel dismissed for disciplinary or misconduct reasons
is 28 days.<br><br>In the last twelve months, the MOD has applied for eviction orders
in 20 cases. All eviction notices were served when unentitled occupants were still
resident in the property.</p>
