Care Bill [Lords]

Proceeding contribution from Sarah Newton (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 11 March 2014. It occurred during Debate on bills on Care Bill [Lords].

It is a great honour to follow the hon. Member for Strangford (Jim Shannon), who touched on an incredibly important point: we must not forget the people whose lives have already been transformed by research organisations’ access to data to find cures and prevention for diseases such as cancer. There cannot be anyone in the House who has not been touched by cancer, personally or within their families. It is incumbent on us all to do everything we can to create the right ecosystem and regulatory environment to enable research that will have a life-saving and transformative effect for people.
