“…The key message coming out of this Bill is the hope that it will give to people who are diagnosed with rare cancers and to their families and friends. At the moment, there is little hope for those people. I thank Dr Scott Arthur again, his staff and the charities that have got us to this point.”

“My Lords, it is a great honour to be opening the debate on the Rare Cancers Bill today. I thank Dr Scott Arthur, the Member of Parliament for Edinburgh South West, who, when he drew number six in the Private Members’ Bill ballot in autumn 2024, chose this crucially important subject for his Bill.”
