BREAST CANCER MORTALITY

Early day motion 1341, tabled 24 April 2009 by David Crausby (Labour). Signed by 50 members.

That this House welcomes the fact that the number of women dying from breast cancer has fallen to its lowest level since records began; recognises the Government commitment to the NHS and improvements in chemotherapy, radiotherapy and screening have all contributed to this; and congratulates the Government in promising to extend screening to include all women aged 47 to 73 years of age by 2012.
