Question

To ask the Scottish Government what its response is to the report by The Brain Tumour Charity, The Cost of a Brain Tumour: The Economic Case for Urgent Action, including the recommendations made.


Answer

The Scottish Government will continue to consider the findings of The Brain Tumour Charity’s recent report. We welcome that its recommendations closely align with our ambitions laid out in our existing Cancer Strategy for Scotland (June 2023), which sets out our ten-year vision to improve cancer survival and provide excellent, equitably accessible care, including for people with brain tumours.
