Lung Cancer Awareness Month (EDM2853)

Lung Cancer Awareness Month

EDM number 2853 in 2005-06, proposed by Peter Soulsby on 25/10/2006.

That this House notes that November is Lung Cancer Awareness Month and that lung cancer is the UK's largest killer cancer, resulting in over 36,000 deaths in the UK every year; recognises that early detection improves the chances of successful treatment and that therefore raising awareness of signs and symptoms among the population is critical; is concerned that a patient's chances of survival can vary by up to four times depending on where they live; notes that five year survival rates average only 7 per cent. in the UK, compared to 11.5 per cent. in France and 13 per cent. in the USA; congratulates the members of the UK Lung Cancer Coalition on their drive to raise awareness of the disease; and calls on the Government to work with the UK Lung Cancer Coalition to ensure that their achievable target of doubling five-year patient survival by 2015 is met.

This motion has been signed by a total of 63 MPs.
