Knook Camp near Warminster THE Ministry of Defence has pledged to carefully consider a National Audit Office report on its single living accommodation provision. In a new report, the NAO said the MoD was failing to meet its commitment to provide all armed forces service personnel with high-quality subsidised accommodation. Some said the accommodation was failing to meet basic needs, with common problems being the lack of heating and hot water, limited storage space, poor or expensive wi-fi, and a lack of cooking facilities. Gareth Davies, the NAO head, said: Decades of under-investment has left many of the barracks where members of our armed forces live in a poor state.

Knook Camp near Warminster THE Ministry of Defence wants to upgrade accommodation at the Knook army camp next to the A36 south of Warminster. The MoD s Defence Infrastructure Organisations wants to demolish the camp’s existing buildings and construct seven single-storey accommodation blocks and associated external work. The move is using money from a £200 million investment to improve armed forces accommodation announced by the Defence Secretary last summer. The MoD wants to install more carbon efficient accommodation blocks on training sites, including Knook Camp on Salisbury Plain. The plans have been unanimously backed by Heytesbury, Imber & Knook parish councillors but they have some reservations about the lighting the MoD wishes to install.
