Access to Cancer Treatment Bill 2012: Second Stage
Of course, the Minister of the day would not look forward to having to take a difficult decision and having to say at times that a drug would not be made available, but it would be based on very good grounds and on consultations with professionals who have the expertise to help the Minister make that determination. However, it would be up to the Minister to opt out of providing that drug rather than just opting in.
