James Murray

Labour (Co-op) — Ealing North

Speaking in the House of Commons on 22 June 2026

Debate

Pathways Study: Puberty Suppression

Contribution

There is a fundamental difference of approach between me and the hon. Lady. The reason for the trial is not to ensure that young people on the waiting list can get access to treatment; the trial is to find an evidence base on which to take future decisions about whether young people should be offered treatment and, if so, in what way. Talking about waiting lists and the trial combines two things that, in my view of the world, really do not have a relationship in this context.
