answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/11/2023 answer text <p>The Department is aware that what happened last winter was not good enough. Too many homes were affected by damp and mould. That is why we have prioritised a year-long £29 million programme as part of the additional £400 million funding over the next two years announced in the Defence Command Paper Refresh 2023. This will address the underlying causes of damp and mould for around 4,000 homes, representing around 60% of all properties requiring such work.</p><p> </p><p>Most homes will receive a standardised package of relatively simple works including increasing insulation, replacing guttering, upgrading extractor fans, replacing radiators, and resealing windows and doors. The most severely affected homes are being tackled first, with remediation work to over 1,000 already completed.</p><p> </p><p>In properties where more substantial works are required, £94 million of investment this financial year has been dedicated to replacing doors and windows, upgrading heating for around 1,500 homes, improving groundwater drainage and damp-proof courses, roof repairs and/or replacement and installation of external wall insulation to make homes more energy efficient.</p> answering member constituency South Suffolk answering member printed James Cartlidge question first answered 22/11/2023 17:23:42 answering member 4519 label Biography information for James Cartlidge

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/07/2023 answer text <p>Pinnacle have completed the implementation of the Rectification Plan and are at or above the minimum Acceptable Level of Performance (ALP) in all areas where they have sole responsibility for delivery.</p><p>Performance has improved for both VIVO and Amey in the key areas of response maintenance timeframes and reducing the backlog of maintenance tasks, since the rectification plans were implemented in September 2022. However, there is still more work to do before VIVO and Amey are consistently at the ALP.</p><p>The Department has set out an expectation that suppliers must demonstrate they can sustain performance at or above the ALP before the rectification plans will be considered to have succeeded. The Department has made it very clear that there is still more to achieve before Service families are getting the level of service that they are entitled to.</p> answering member constituency South Suffolk answering member printed James Cartlidge question first answered 12/07/2023 11:06:07 answering member 4519 label Biography information for James Cartlidge
