25. Mr. Martlew

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what plans he has to improve cancer services. [506]

Yvette Cooper

We are investing additional funding in priority areas. £280 million is available for improvements to cancer services this year, rising to £570 million by 2003–04, and we are reforming the way in which cancer care is delivered through the implementation of the NHS Cancer Plan.
