Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what recent discussions the Breast Cancer Clinical Reference Group has had with organisations in the devolved administrations on the sharing of best practice.

The purpose of the NHS England Clinical Expert Group on Breast Cancer (CEG) is to share best practice. The CEG, as a broadly based group of breast cancer specialists, has defined what best practice should be, working in conjunction with other nationally recognised clinical breast cancer groups. Clinical advice is shared primarily through the Cancer Alliances.
