- Funding for their places was not extended.
- The Ministry of Defence says the programme provides time-limited support.

## Summary

Around a dozen former service personnel living at Stone Court in Torquay may have to leave their accommodation after funding for their places was not extended. The residents were told the Government’s Reducing Veterans’ Homelessness programme would stop covering the costs, with eviction expected by March.

The report says the veterans learned two weeks earlier that an application to extend the funding had failed. Among those affected are Scott Marshall, 42, who served in Iraq and Cyprus and was referred by the Royal British Legion, and former Navy seaman Maurice Quinlan, 47, whose young daughter stays with him three nights a week. The Ministry of Defence said funding through the programme is time-limited; charities have helped some veterans facing similar housing difficulties.
