Defence written question – answered at on 25 February 2008.
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence how many of his Department's properties in Scotland have been declared unfit for habitation.
The information requested is not held centrally and it will take time to determine what information could be provided without incurring disproportionate cost.
I will write to my hon. Friend at the earliest opportunity.
Substantive answer from Derek Twigg to Jim Devine:
I undertook to write to you in answer to your Parliamentary Question on
I should explain that properties can be uninhabited for various reasons, such as they are awaiting demolition or undergoing major repair, modernisation or upgrade work. All occupied properties are regarded as being of a habitable standard. A record of all MOD property in Scotland that is uninhabitable is not held centrally and could only be provided at disproportionate cost.
