Biography
Dr Murrison has engaged extensively on health and social care through 16 debate speeches, with particular focus on dentistry access, where he repeatedly highlighted problems with the 2006 dental contract and units of dental activity undermining NHS provision. He has also raised concerns about GP administrative burdens, assisted dying (opposing the Terminally Ill Adults Bill on grounds of protecting vulnerable adults), palliative care funding, mental health fraud prevention, and adult social care reform including delayed hospital discharges. Learning disability and autism provision, particularly a proposed SEND school in his Wiltshire constituency, features prominently across multiple contributions.

“…People can move from one end of the country to another into a dental desert—Wiltshire is one of those. Does he think that there is a case for putting a duty on integrated care boards to translate people’s position with an NHS dentist—where they are lucky enough to find one—to their new area?

“…However, will he ensure that we do not give the false impression that all veterans are homeless and have mental health problems? Nothing could be further from the truth. Happily, the great majority of people leaving our armed forces are well sorted in their life, and in robust mental health.”
