Breast Cancer Drugs

Proceeding contribution from Desmond Swayne (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 26 January 2017. It occurred during Backbench debate on Breast Cancer Drugs.

This is essentially the same question I asked earlier. I think that we all accept that a mistake has been made and that the decision was wrong. The key question is this: what is the remedy? Does the remedy lie within NICE’s remit, and therefore it could change its procedures and considerations, or does it lie within the statutory framework that Parliament and Government have set for it to work within? We have to come to an answer on that.
