Dr Andrew Murrison

Conservative — South West Wiltshire

Speaking in the House of Commons on 26 January 2026

Debate

Armed Forces Bill

Contribution

The Secretary of State refers to the local connection test. Will he acknowledge that the removal of that test was initiated by the previous Government? That is not the impression he gave in his initial remarks, although it is certainly the case. Secondly, is it his intention to allocate service housing going forward on the basis primarily of rank or primarily on need?
