Amendments 109 and 119 would require regulations to be made establishing a new military homes standard that would apply to all Ministry of Defence accommodation. Amendment 109 mandates that this military homes standard must be higher than the decent homes standard that will apply to privately rented homes. It is important that service personnel and their families have accommodation of the high quality that they deserve. However, these amendments are not practical. They are unworkable and risk undermining the outcomes that they seek to achieve.
