Cancer Treatment In The UK

EDM number 1814 in 2002-03, proposed by Alan Meale on 27/10/2003.

That this House applauds the commitment, financial and otherwise of Her Majesty's Government, in supporting and resourcing progress towards the treatment of cancer in the UK; notes however the recent survey, Equipment, Workload and Staffing for Radiotherapy in the UK 1997-2002, published by the Royal College of Radiologists, whose clinical oncology members are responsible for the delivery of radiotherapy and chemotherapy services to patients, which states that 'much remains to be done to ensure that the UK has sufficient capacity to meet the demand for cancer treatments'; and calls upon the Government to ensure that the NHS is given necessary resources to ensure it has sufficient equipment and staff, especially clinical oncologists, radiographers and physicists to delivery treatment to those who need it.

This motion has been signed by a total of 45 MPs.
