Proceeding contribution from Steve Brine (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 January 2012. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Breast Implants.


Breast Implants

I welcome the Secretary of State's statement. As he knows, I co-chair the all-party group on breast cancer and we will want to monitor how women are treated by the NHS and private providers, and we will certainly feed that into the Department. For women who have fought breast cancer and been through the trauma of reconstructive surgery, this will bring it all back and be tremendously upsetting. Does the Secretary of State therefore agree that speed is of the essence in respect of replacement surgery where it is wanted, so that those women can again put this nightmare behind them?
