Delta Hotel Echo
Page 17 to be precise.
There are soon to become a lot more houses for sale at the former RAF Kirton Lindsey as the Army have recently announced that they are to move the current unit out out next year and favourite option is to close the base.
As for comparisons with Valley – having served at both Valley and Scampton (the nearest RAF base to KL) - I’d say that they are hardly in the same league.

According to the Annual Abstract of Statistics, 2003, service manpower strengths dropped by 9600 between 1997 and 2001. Deployment in England and Wales rose by 800 over the same period.
So why were 9400 MQs sold off during this time?
As a comparison, 13,200 personnel and 3300 MQs were deemed surplus between 1996 and 1997.

New Houses at High Wycombe
I note that after selling off the Quarters opposite RAF HW. The owners of the land (I presume Anningtons) have applied for planning permission to build 11 new houses. These houses will be placed in the area that was once a childrens playground!

MoD pays Annington the rent each year, so seeing a bill for over 100 million GBP in its issued statistics makes sense. Take a bow, Annington Recievables Ltd.
So why is it also paying Annington Property Ltd an unspecified annual amount which it coyly brackets at between 10 and 25 million GBP? And what are they paying for?
How many versions of Annington are out there?

Maintenance of SFA
This is the beauty of it! The MOD funds the maintenance and modernising of the Annington-owned quarters, managed by DHE and subcontracted the the usual gang of facilities management companies!
As a landlord of several small properties, I would be over the moon if my tenants clubbed together and said:
"There there, EC, let us maintain these properties at our expense; oh, we think the kitchens need to be refurbished, too. We'll sort it out"
Haven't seen it in the thread - but SFA in Scotland are still MOD owned; there are several patches in England that the MOD (Defence Estates Agency) are ineptly trying to sell privately eg: Wroughton OFQs: Refurbished, large quarters with stunning views of the Marlborough Downs; 5 mins from the M4 - then left to be vandalised, then put them on the market for a fraction of their realisable worth.

Well, the Deputy Chairman of Annington's not going to be too fussed about that. Until the middle of this year he was on the board of a major housing trust that has responsibility for over 40,000 houses nationwide. That's in addition to being on the board of a company with responsibility for 43,000+ houses (after they'd flogged off as many as possible in the past few years).
Wonder if he owns 24% of the shares in that trust as well?

Portfolio of Opportunities?
Hmmm....
A certain person's portfolio appears very limited currently. Other than Annington Holdings, just a couple of toy directorships (HMS Trincomalee Trust and Kenton Bar Bunker Company). Playing with boats and playing at soldiers in his spare time?
The ex-portfolio is a lot more interesting. Seems he resigned from the Home Housing Trust, Urban Housing Trust Ltd and Paramount Homes at the same time (mid 2003). Conflict of interests maybe?
Then there's the ex-directorships of the Great North Air Ambulance Service Trading Company Ltd, Blackfriars (Stowell Street) Management Company Ltd, The Union Jack Club and ANNINGTON HOMES LTD.
Not to mention his ex-directorship of Clyde Helicopters, now defunct.
Nil nos, are you collating information on DHE admin c)ck-ups?
