Children and Young People Cancer Taskforce
- Question
-
To ask His Majesty's Government why work on the Children and Young People Cancer Taskforce was paused in July; what plans they have to take the evidence received by the taskforce up to that point into account in future work; and when they plan to make a final decision on the future of the taskforce, or any successor body.
- Answer
-
The Children and Young People Cancer Taskforce was paused in June 2024 so that ministers could assess the work of the taskforce so far, and determine how it fitted into the Government’s priorities for the Department.
However, the work carried out to date on the taskforce was incredibly valuable and remains important to the Department's work. We are committed to progressing work in this area and we will set out more details on next steps for the taskforce in due course.
