Proceeding contribution from Bob Russell (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 3 February 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Strategic Defence Review (Green Paper).
Strategic Defence Review (Green Paper)
The Secretary of State said, "Our biggest capability is our people…military and civilian", and their ability to deliver defence. He was completely silent on the need for decent housing, whether it be single or family accommodation. Although I acknowledge the disaster of the privatisation of family housing by the previous Government, does he agree that the Government have had plenty of time to put that right? If retention is still an important part of the Government's thinking, decent housing for our married soldiers is a priority.
