The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how he plans to integrate the 10-Year Plan with the National Cancer Plan.

Answered by Ashley Dalton

The 10-Year Health Plan sets out how we will fight cancer on all fronts, from prevention to diagnosis to treatment, to improve survival and reduce the lives lost to one of the biggest killers. The National Cancer Plan for England will take forward this work and build on the shifts set out in the 10-Year Health Plan to improve the experiences and outcomes for people with cancer.
