Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many Single Living Accommodation units in each UK local authority area have recorded Legionella, in each year since 2018.

Information on the number of cases of Legionella recorded in Single Living Accommodation (SLA) in each year since 2018 is not held centrally and could be provided only at disproportionate cost.

Further to my response to the hon Member's Question 91487 answered on 25 November 2025, following further review of the information, the answer provided gave the quantity of Legionella tests undertaken and not confirmed cases of Legionella.

The Ministry of Defence’s contractor VIVO took over responsibility for maintaining SLA within the Future Defence Infrastructure Services, Southwest contract in February 2022, data prior to this date is not held.

The below table shows that there have been no Legionella positive samples within SLA in Shropshire and North Shropshire between February 2022 to date:

The remaining data provided for Question 91487 remains unchanged.
