Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Steve Webb (Liberal Democrat), on Thursday, 16 March 2006, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 133 members in total.


PRESCRIPTION FOR CHANGE CAMPAIGN

That this House supports Breast Cancer Care's `Prescription for change' campaign to raise awareness about the impact of prescription charges on cancer patients; is concerned at the campaign's findings that many breast cancer patients experience financial difficulty as a result of paying prescription charges; is further concerned that some breast cancer patients cannot afford to get their prescriptions dispensed and are therefore not taking the drugs they have been prescribed; and calls for an urgent review of the list of conditions that are exempt from prescription charges.
