HC Deb 20 January 1994 vol 235 c820W
Mr. Battle

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence how many of his Ministry's properties there are in the Huntingdon constituency area; and how many are empty.

Mr. Hanley

As at 31 December 1993, there were 1,508 service married quarters in the Huntingdon constituency area, of which 51 were vacant. Of these, 30 were awaiting major maintenance work and three were allocated to service families who were due to move in shortly. In addition, there were 26 properties which were formerly married quarters but are now used as single accommodation, storage and welfare facilities. Of these, five were vacant as they were uninhabitable.
