Answer
The new 10 year Northern Ireland (NI) cancer strategy is currently being finalised following a review of the responses received during the consultation period. It is due to be published in early February. Its overall aim is to ensure that everyone in NI has equitable and timely access to the most effective, evidence-based referral, diagnosis, treatment, support and person centred cancer care.
