Cancer Screening Programme: Motion.

 

From my discussions with BreastCheck I am aware that problems have arisen over the recruitment of radiographers and other specialist staff specifically for this programme. I appreciate that certain infrastructure is needed, as well as trained specialist staff. Despite that, however, the BreastCheck organisation has done the necessary groundwork and it could roll out its programme to the southern and western areas within 22 months of receipt of the required funding. Any delay in providing that funding means an inevitable delay in delivering the service to those who need it.
