To ensure Single Living Accommodation is adequately maintained this winter, the Department has introduced enhanced planned maintenance for heating and hot water systems with "plug-in" functionality for temporary boilers and generators to improve resilience, reliability, and availability across a significant number of Single Living Accommodation. Furthermore, fault, defect and maintenance management information for heating, hot water, damp and mould is being enhanced, enabling pro-active interventions that will reduce the probability of failure and improve the reliability of installations.<\/p>

All Single Living Accommodation service contracts are recognised to be performing to the required Key Performance Indicator standards.<\/p>

<\/p>

A Written Ministerial Statement (WMS) to communicate the action that has been taken to prepare for Service Family Accommodation over the winter period was laid in the House on 13 November 2023. A link to the WMS can be found below:<\/p>

<\/p>

The WMS includes planned works to address issues such as damp and mould that have greater impact in winter; and measures to improve performance delivering responsive repairs resulting from, or occurring during, inclement weather.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4952", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for The Earl of Minto"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "The Earl of Minto"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2023-11-23", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2023-11-23T17:18:28.813Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "11"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Defence"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Defence"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2023-11-09", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Armed Forces: Housing"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they have taken to ensure that single living and service family accommodation is adequately maintained this winter.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4935", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for The Lord Bishop of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "The Lord Bishop of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich"} ], "uin" : "HL191"} ], "itemsPerPage" : 10, "page" : 0, "startIndex" : 1, "totalResults" : 1, "type" : ["http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#ListEndpoint", "http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#Page"]} }
