Proceeding contribution from Baroness Masham of Ilton (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Monday, 27 February 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Health and Social Care Bill.
Health and Social Care Bill
My Lords, I, too, support these amendments, being associated with the rarer cancers group and various other groups. I had a cousin who had neuroblastoma two years ago and had to go to America for treatment. Some of these problems are really complex and GPs have never seen them. However, in the longer term, it is a question of ongoing treatment and the complexity of getting the right drugs for the right condition. Sometimes these drugs do not even come before NICE because the conditions are so rare. This matter really does need serious consideration and I hope that the Minister will do his best.
