I was delighted that the Northern Ireland Minister with responsibility for health has said that he will make Herceptin available for specific breast cancer sufferers in the Province. However, we have just had the disturbing disclosure that a radiographer in Northern Ireland has been suspended pending inquiries into whether the correct information was given to women after breast screening. Will the Minister tell the House what checks and balances are in place throughout the United Kingdom to prevent the unnecessary experience that 1,300 women in Northern Ireland are now facing in waiting to see whether they have been given the correct diagnosis?
