We have a problem with damp patches which are breaking out in our wall

We have a problem with damp patches which are breaking out in our walls either 1/2 way up or towards the top. What is the best approach to resolve?

In most cases this happens at about 1.2m and higher for about 300mm,this is mostly salt laden interior render left over from previous damp treatments. If this sounds about right for your walls, re rendering those areas is the only solution.
