Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Neil Carmichael (Conservative), on Wednesday, 26 November 2014, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 36 members in total.
ROBOTIC SURGERY FOR KIDNEY CANCER OR BLADDER CANCER PATIENTS
That this House believes that all cancer patients deserve the most appropriate treatment through the NHS; expresses concern about the proposed clinical commissioning policy for kidney and bladder cancer from NHS England which proposes to stop altogether robotic-assisted surgical treatments for patients with bladder and kidney cancer; notes that awareness of bladder and kidney cancer is low and that the conditions need more research; recognises that a proven treatment operation has been available for some time and is concerned that the cessation of these services will limit treatment options for patients; and calls on NHS England to look again at its draft commissioning policies and listen carefully to responses received through a public consultation.
