Motion TitleCancer Strategy

Motion TextThat this Assembly acknowledges the widespread concern at the increase in cancer diagnoses among children and young people over the past decades; notes that some rarer cancers require co-operation across borders, including sharing of information such as clinical trial results and cancer registries; stresses the need to prioritise the tracking of the prevalence of particular cancers to enable more efficient interventions and better patient outcomes; recognises that countries and regions with the best cancer outcomes have delivered these through the adoption of a strategic approach based on ongoing learning and cross-party political endorsement; and calls on the Minister of Health to set out a clear plan to implement the Cancer Strategy 2022-32 as a matter of urgency.
