Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Daisy Cooper (Liberal Democrat), on Tuesday, 27 February 2024, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 6 members in total.
Parliamentary time for cancer treatment debate
That this House calls on the Government to drop the general debate whose subject is yet to be announced on 4 March 2024 and bring forward instead a motion in the name of the Liberal Democrats, doing so in recognition that the party should be allowed to do so as the fourth-largest party in the House of Commons, third-largest party in the UK by vote-share and following the precedents set in previous Parliaments, to debate ways to support the 36% of patients currently waiting longer than 62 days to begin cancer treatment, and the merits of introducing a legal right to a two-month cancer treatment guarantee.
