Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment he has made of the potential merits of including a dedicated chapter within the National Cancer Plan on children and young people.
This question was answered on 10th March 2025
The structure of the National Cancer Plan document will be decided in due course. However, the plan will address the unique experiences of children and young people with cancer. To support this, on 4 February 2025, we relaunched the Children and Young People Cancer Taskforce to identify tangible ways to improve outcomes and experiences for children and young people with cancer.
