To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps he plans to take to improve treatment for people with a glioblastoma brain tumour.
Wes Streeting
Secretary of State for Health and Social Care
Like so many Hon. members across the House, I dearly miss the late Baroness McDonough, who was sadly taken from us by glioblastoma. I’m determined to improve overall survival rates and treatment for rarer cancers like these and I met with officials and leading clinicians on glioblastomas this week to discuss what more we can do.

Secretary of State was originally the title given to the two officials who conducted the Royal Correspondence under Elizabeth I. Now it is the title held by some of the more important Government Ministers, for example the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.
