CERVICAL CANCER SCREENING AGE

Early day motion 1403, tabled 25 April 2016 by Lord Mann (Labour). Signed by 18 members.

That this House commends the work of Vicki Cristofis and her campaign to raise awareness of the risks of cervical cancer; notes that cervical cancer affects women of all ages, including young people; further notes that the cervical cancer screening programme saves around 5,000 lives every year in the UK; and therefore supports her campaign to have the cervical cancer screening age lowered from 25 to 18.
