DEFENCE Secretary John Healey has pledged to "stop the rot" in military housing through a new consumer charter aiming to improve living conditions for personnel and their families.

The Government also announced the members of an independent review team tasked with creating a wider defence housing strategy, which will be chaired by former MP Natalie Elphicke Ross.

Ms Elphicke Ross was elected as the Conservative MP for Dover in 2019, but defected to Labour in the final weeks of the Tories' tenure in government.

In May 2024, she campaigned with Sir Keir Starmer and criticised Rishi Sunak's "tired and chaotic government".

The defence housing strategy, which will be published later this year, will set out further plans aimed at improving the standard of service family housing.
