Ministers have regular discussions with NHS England on a range of issues, including the Cancer Drugs Fund (CDF).

NHS England has advised that the Chemotherapy Clinical Reference Group (CRG) met on 9 February 2015 when a paper summarising the outcome of the recent CDF panel was discussed. The CRG membership is made up predominately of clinical members including two breast cancer oncologists.
