Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to ensure that the ongoing development of the NICE clinical knowledge summary on prostate cancer includes advice for general practitioners on discussing prostate cancer risk with men in high-risk groups, including black men and men with a family history of prostate cancer.

National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) clinical knowledge summaries (CKS) are developed independently of the Government on the basis of the latest available evidence, but officials will continue to work with the developers of the prostate cancer CKS to ensure that they remain as helpful as possible for general practitioners.
