Diolch, Lywydd. Cabinet Secretary, one of our most effective weapons for fighting cancer is population-level screening. I welcome the recent announcement made by the Minister for public health about the move to better methods of screening for both bowel and cervical cancer. However, no matter how we improve the screening techniques, our biggest battle is convincing the public to participate in screening programmes. What plans does your Government have to reverse the downward trend in cervical screening and improve uptake in bowel cancer screening?
