I am sure that noble Lords will allow me to start by paying tribute to the noble Lord, Lord Aberdare, and to his contribution to your Lordships’ House. Many noble Lords will know that he is retiring from our House this summer. I thank him for all his work across a wide variety of issues, including skills, education, construction and of course health. I wish him well in his retirement.

Thanks to the Government’s innovative devices access pathway, which streamlines access to innovative medical technologies, we are supporting the rollout of histotripsy for liver tumours, a non-invasive ultrasound treatment for hard-to-beat cancers. We are working with partners to develop a rollout timetable to be shared later this summer. The national cancer plan, due later this year, will seek to improve every aspect of cancer care, including outcomes for those with less survivable cancers.
