The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether his Department holds information on the number of NHS cancer treatment centres that have access to medical grade freezers.

The Department and NHS England do not hold information centrally on the number of National Health Service cancer treatment centres that have access to medical grade freezers. Further information on the availability and adequacy of freezing capacity in specific cancer treatment centres may be obtained through direct engagement with NHS providers.
