Members' Business — S6M-12066 Foysol Choudhury: Brain Tumour Awareness Month

That the Parliament notes that March 2024 is Brain Tumour Awareness Month, a month dedicated to raising awareness of what it sees as the importance of brain tumour research and shining a light on the patient population across Scotland; understands that one in three people know someone affected by what it considers to be this devastating disease; further understands that, unlike in many other cancers, brain tumour survival statistics have changed little in over a generation, and notes the belief that brain tumours must be treated as a clinical and strategic priority by government, and that, as brain tumours are recognised as a "cancer of unmet need", money must be ring fenced to support the discovery science that, it understands, could transform patient outcomes in the field.
