<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

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
