Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many people are on the waiting list for cancer screening across the UK.

There are no waiting lists for the three cancer screening programmes, bowel, breast or cervical, in England. Lung cancer screening, which is being rolled out nationally, does not have waiting lists either.

Cancer screening is a devolved matter, and we do not hold information regarding waiting lists for Scotland, Ireland, and Wales.
