Asked by: Lord Carlile of Berriew (Crossbench - Life peer)

Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the introduction, operation and effectiveness of the Future Accommodation Model for the accommodation of Royal Navy personnel and their families working and based at Her Majesty’s Naval Base Clyde, Faslane.

Answered by Earl Howe - Shadow Deputy Leader of the House of Lords

Accommodation for our Service personnel is essential to the delivery of military capability.

The pilot will allow us to test and refine the FAM, ensuring we have the right accommodation policy in place for the needs of Service personnel.
