Motion Text

That this House notes the unaffordability of premiums charged by many travel insurance firms to cancer patients or people with a history of cancer treatment; regrets that travel insurance can often be more expensive for cancer sufferers than the total of all other travel costs combined; celebrates the fact that more and more people are surviving cancer and living longer; and calls on the Government and insurance companies to work together to ensure that those who survive cancer are not prevented from living their life to the full.
