That this House welcomes the production of the magazine Voices by the Women's Unit in the Cabinet Office with the support of Good Housekeeping magazine; urges the Government to ensure that this magazine is displayed in every public outlet; and hopes it will become compulsory reading for every parliamentarian and develops a culture of attracting articles from across the social divide.
United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 6 December 2000
That this House shares the Cancer Research Campaign's concern that, as a result of the newly adopted Charter of Human Rights, doctors have been issued guidance by the General Medical Council not to report incidences of cancer and other diseases amongst their patients as a matter of course to their regional cancer registries unless they have first checked with the patient; is worried that this will result in an erosion of the Office of National Statistics registry of cancer; is very concerned that such an erosion of data about the incidence of cancer in the UK will undermine efforts of governments to target cancer black-spots, the ability to understand the causes and effects of cancer and ultimately undermine the crusade to find a cure for cancer; and calls upon the GMC to reissue guidelines to doctors which emphasise the need to collect cancer statistics as a matter of course.

That this House welcomes Cancer BACUP's report, Living with Cancer in the 21st Century; records its concern that cancer survival rates in the UK remain below the EU average; welcomes the Government's commitment to reducing cancer deaths and inequalities in treatment; believes that new anti-cancer treatments should be made available on the NHS as soon as their effectiveness has been proved; and calls on ministers to make additional resources available for medicines recommended by the National Institute for Clinical Excellence, so that other aspects of cancer care do not suffer as a consequence of NICE's recommendations.

That this House notes with profound regret that if Senator Pinochet were to return to Chile he is unlikely ever to stand trial for the crimes against humanity committed under his regime; notes that this will be felt most of all by people like Sergio Requina-Rueda, an MSF member, who was detained and tortured under the Pinochet regime and who was not extended the same opportunity of medical advice and support that has now been given to Senator Pinochet; calls for the medical report to be made available to the relevant Spanish judicial authorities; and urges all those involved to continue to do everything within their power to ensure that the evidence of those who suffered under the Pinochet regime, including that of Sergio Requina-Rueda, is one day heard in a court of law.
