Points of Order

Alicia Kearns Excerpts

Tuesday 24th February 2026 Commons Chamber

[Mr Speaker]

I thank the hon. Member for her point of order and for placing the correction on the record.

[Alicia Kearns (Rutland and Stamford) (Con)]

On a point of order, Mr Speaker. I apologise for not giving you prior notice, Mr Speaker, but during Health questions this morning the Minister said that for the first time ever there will be a children’s cancer strategy as part of the cancer strategy. However, the Government scrapped the children’s cancer strategy that we had put in place, so should the Minister not come and correct the record for having misled the House—

[Mr Speaker]

Order. That is not a point of order, and we are not going to carry on the debate. It is not for me to say whether there was right or wrong. The hon. Member has certainly got the point on the record. I am sorry we did not get you in for a question—it might have saved us the point of order.
