The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what data he holds on cancer (a) diagnosis wait times and (b) treatment commencement wait times in Ely and East Cambridgeshire constituency.

Answered by Ashley Dalton

Data on waiting times for cancer diagnosis and treatment commencement are publicly available at the following link:

https://www.england.nhs.uk/statistics/statistical-work-areas/cancer-waiting-times/

The figures are broken down by NHS trust rather than by constituency.

The two main NHS trusts in Ely and East Cambridgeshire are the Cambridge University Hospitals Trust and the North West Anglia Trust.
