PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
CAMPAIGN FOR PARITY OF BOWEL CANCER TREATMENT (7 February 2006)

Motion Details

That this House notes with regret the sad death of Mr Jack Wilson, aged 66 years, of Washington on Sunday from bowel cancer; offers its deepest sympathies to Mr Wilson's family; further notes that Mr Wilson had been refused Cetuximab and may have survived longer had he received this treatment when requested; believes that other lives may be prolonged if the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) becomes more effective in its role of ensuring parity of treatment throughout England; and urges the Government to fund all clinically agreed drug treatments and speed up NICE approvals so that the chance to live longer is not dependent on private means or where a person lives.
