Jim Shannon

Democratic Unionist Party — Strangford

Speaking in the House of Commons on 11 June 2025

Debate

NHS Funding: South-west

Contribution

I am here to support the hon. Gentleman; I congratulate him on bringing this subject forward for debate. He is right to highlight issues with cancer care. It is the same for us back home: only a third of those referred by GPs begin treatment within the target time. Does he feel that there is money to be saved through the administration in the south-west trust area? If there is, perhaps that could help.
