Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what safeguards are in place to ensure continuity of funding, leadership, data systems and oversight for the roll out of the National Lung Cancer Screening Programme during the transition away from NHS England.

Further to the answer provided on 18 November 2025 to Question 89179, I refer the Hon. Member to the Department's National Cancer Plan for England, which sets out the Government's commitment to completing the national rollout of lung cancer screening by 2030.
