§ Mr. MossMy Department has established a cancer working group, under the chairmanship of the chief medical officer, to review the current provision of cancer services in Northern Ireland and to make recommendations by 31 March 1996 as to how the services can be improved. Any major decision on the pattern of cancer services, including new investments, will be taken in the light of the work of that group and my Department's response to it.
