<p>The interim NHS People Plan, published on 3 June 2019, puts the workforce at the
heart of the National Health Service and will ensure we have the staff needed to deliver
high quality care. A final People Plan will be published soon after the conclusion
of the 2019 Spending Review.</p><p>The Cancer Workforce Plan for England, published
in December 2017 by Health Education England (HEE), set out plans to expand capacity
and skills in the cancer workforce, including targeting additional training support
for seven priority professions which are key to cancer prevention, diagnosis and treatment,
such as clinical radiology, histopathology, oncology and diagnostic and therapeutic
radiography. HEE will now work with NHS England and NHS Improvement to understand
the longer-term workforce implications of further development of cancer services.
This work will inform the final People Plan.</p>
