Conservative — Hinckley and Bosworth

Speaking in the House of Commons on 25 June 2026

Debate

National Lung Cancer Screening Programme

Contribution

I appreciate that this is not part of the Minister’s brief. The speed of the programme’s roll-out is fantastic, but there remains a concern that if 60% of people have taken it up, 40% have not done so, despite having had an offer that could have been given to someone else who wanted to go. Can the Department take that point away and work out what is being done to close that gap of more than a third? There is clearly a greater opportunity to get more people in and get them detected sooner.
