Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, when he expects the Cancer Transformation Fund to be made available to support the Cancer Recovery Package and the cancer stratified follow-up pathways.
This question was answered on 4th July 2017
In December 2016, Cancer Alliances were invited to submit bids against a £200 million transformation fund (for 2017/18 and 2018/19) to support delivery of early diagnosis and implementation of the Recovery Package and stratified follow-up pathways. Based on an assessment of the bids, NHS England has decided to take a phased approach to releasing the funding over the course of 2017/18.
