Text

Mr McGrath asked the Minister of Health, following the decision this week to make Enhertu available to women with HER2-low advanced breast cancer in England as well as other places in these islands, to explain why women and, indeed, men in Northern Ireland who meet the criteria still do not have the same guaranteed access and to commit today to ensuring that eligible patients here can receive the same life-saving drug without further delay.

74 words. Text as published by the Northern Ireland Assembly.
