The motion
That this House notes with concern that just under 9,000 people are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in the UK every year; acknowledges that this type of cancer has the lowest five-year survival rate of any common cancer and one that has barely improved in 40 years; and commends Ulster University on its major breakthrough on pancreatic cancer which could lead to a fivefold reduction in the size of tumours.
