Breast Cancer Screening For Over 65s

EDM number 1313 in 1997-98, proposed by Paul Flynn on 12/05/1998.

That this House congratulates the Government on its efforts to encourage women aged 65 and over to request breast cancer screening; notes that these efforts have resulted in about one per cent of women in that age group being screened each year, while 70 per cent of women aged 50 to 64, to whom individual invitations are sent, attend for screening; notes that the incidence of breast cancer increases with age; and calls on the Government to remove the age limit of 64 so that older women will also receive individual invitations.

This motion has been signed by a total of 144 MPs, 2 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
