§ Sir Michael NeubertTo ask the Secretary of State for Health when she expects to announce her decision on the review of cancer services in London.
§ Dr. MawhinneyNo single decision rests on the results of the review of cancer specialty services in London. All the specialty reviews are due to be presented to Ministers, as independent advice, in June and will subsequently be published. Together with the review of special health authority research and the assessments of London's hospital sites, the specialty reviews will inform decisions on the future pattern of hospital services in the capital. The timetable is set out in "Making London Better", and any major changes in service provision would be subject to the normal statutory consultation process.
