HC Deb 25 October 1994 vol 248 c586W
Ms Lynne

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what plans she has to instigate a national action plan on breast cancer.

Mr. Sackville

I have no plans to instigate a national action plan specifically for breast cancer. The Chief Medical Officer's expert advisory group on cancer published earlier this year a report recommending general principles to improve all cancer services. The Department is currently evaluating comments on that report; so far those are very largely favourable.
