Surplus Stopping

Just found out when I marched in today for my surplus quarter that they are now stopping surplus quarters, you are either entitled or you don't get one.

The reason given to me by the housing officer was that it was costing too much money for the surplus quarters.

The local DHE regs say that they can only let a 10% surplus ie 11 quarters empty before they can let 1. So call me daft, but surely 1 quarter being paid for has got to be making more money than one which isn't.

I can't see where the extra cost for DHEO (or whatever it is called these days) is. Any ideas?

Unless it is a hidden way of stating that people aren't using quarters and therefore they can start selling them off ahead of the normal plan to sell them off.
