I am sorry to interrupt, but regarding people referred to the service by GPs, is there evidence that cancer is being detected at a more advanced stage because of the various delays? I refer to people who may have been delayed in getting to their GP or who may have had difficulty in getting access. Is there evidence now to show that we are coming across more cases at a more advanced stage?
